Sometimes Madi writes poems for other people, on the street, with a typewriter.

Sometimes Madi writes poems for friends and familiars to mark big changes.

Sometimes Madi rolls up her heartsleeves and writes poems for herself.

Always Madi writes poems to ask more questions to the world of her understanding.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Hi, I\u2019m Madi! I\u2019m originally from Catonsville, Maryland but I currently live in New Orleans where I use a typewriter to write poems on the streets for anyone who provides a topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m interested in intersectional, ecofeminist poetics and I try to write poems full of images and themes of nature that are multifaceted and often contradictory.

My poems have been published in Quail Bell Magazine, MUSE Literary Journal, and Antigravity Magazine. My poem \u201cPast Dream Storms\u201d received an honorable mention for the 2023 Holden Vaughn Spangler Award and my poem \u201cOn Remembering Hardwoods\u201d was a finalist for the 2023 Poetry Broadside Contest with lmnl lit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I studied English Literature and Environmental Studies at Washington College. My biggest poetic influences are Lucille Clifton, Joy Harjo, Ross Gay, Mary Oliver, Louise Gl\u00fcck, and Lawrence Ferlinghetti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
