Jubi Arriola-Headley closes out our #NationalPoetryMonth interview series. Read his responses, candid and complex, below:
Q: Name a poet, living or not, whose work you wish people talked about more.
A: I want the living to get their flowers, so: Willie Perdomo, Marlanda Dekine, Alfredo Aguiar, Laura Villareal, Taylor Byas, and dozens more out there poeting with a rapturous spirit.
We couldn't have put it better. Thank you Jubi!
Luckily Chantal Lawrie got photos of Jubi and fellow readers Angel, Raymond, and Francess at the @omiamifestival. ❤️
