dark cocoa with berries blue as black coffee
my tongue rolls drum rolls tasting time
rich as slow accumulation
the sturdy clasp of hands
knowing they can carry anything
can hold everything in the taste of time
ephemeral as the peak of fruit
infinite as the age of wine

Embodying Vulnerable Resistance as a Strategy of Hope
Greetings...
- Diana Tigerlily
- I'm a feminist poet and performance artist. I'm a midwife of words and dreams. My intentions are to raise awareness and offer hope for a better world. I embrace a transnational, ecofeminist performance poetics that includes my full-length one-person show, Depleting Patriarchy, addressing the global impacts of depleted uranium on human bodies and earth bodies. My dissertation is a feminist autoethnography of possibility that puts on display stories of homeplace to reveal vulnerable resistance as a transformative strategy towards global justice. My poetry has been published in We’Moon: Gaia Rhythms for Womyn; Art of Survival: Women, Healing, and the Arts; and Radio-Free Boskydell: a Literary Magazine for Southern Illinois. I hold a Ph.D. in Performance Studies from Southern Illinois University Carbondale, Department of Communication Studies; a Graduate Certificate in Women's Studies; and a Master of Arts degree in English.
