'What is the narrative function of fear? In the horror games / I watch but don't play, the protagonists are faceless. / Nameless. Meaning: until you are threatened, you are / nothing.'
From 'Tension Introduction' by Leslie Sainz for National Poetry Month.

“I am grateful for the names of God / we are allowed to speak, and the hidden. // We didn’t intend to see them fucking among the trees, / as deer to me, in my particular way.” —Alisha Dietzman, “Love Poem by the Light of the Desert” Beacon Press changes.press/alisha-dietzma…
.Alisha Dietzman has a longstanding interest in transgressive art. Exploring its value made her think about pushing herself as a poet and writing poetry with an unsettling effect. Jay David Miller #NationalPoetryMonth buff.ly/43SMS5c

“a tiny, literal tractor discovers the surreal, // and it is a field that swims. / Everything is so delicate in this world, // I imagine God would be a spoon. / Even the infinite rendered a girl, snow.” —Alisha Dietzman, “Gosha Rubchinskiy x Timur Novikov” Beacon Press
