Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
A performed, open, public conversation about how we might think politics from the position of intuition, in which Denise and Valentina use un-reasonable tools to map out a hybrid poetical/ ethical reading of their own situations.
