Short Interview
1. Write a 10-word sentence that embodies how you understand sensory overload.
Buried by my own curiosity, too much input. Circuits overload.
2. What scent/s would your poem be?
The smell of a peaceful, old graveyard as a rainstorm washes in. The odor of life and renewal with the spicy afternotes of fear.
3. What did you intend your audience to feel when reading your piece?
Balanced empathy between a predator and prey. Uncomfortable realization that we are both.
4. Describe your favorite type of light.
The midnight indigo mist of dusk as it settles over the setting sun, veiling the golden light for the sweet brilliance of night.
