INVISIBLE WASP, Liquid Amber Press (2024)
Reading Invisible Wasp is like spending time with your cool friend who helps you navigate life’s strangeness. Powell creates a slippery intimacy, a kind of everyday erotic, with extraordinary skill. Poems hover in the interstices between body and world, reminding us of what is both powerfully animal and achingly fragile about our being. I keep returning to this shimmering collection and every time I find something new. Emilie Collyer
