In today’s episode, Brittany and Ajanae have the pleasure of talking to poets and artists Tank (from Tank and the Bangas) and Jamila Woods. Tank and Jamila take time before their tour to talk with our VS hosts about their entryways into poetry, how place influences their sound, the questions they hold in their minds while creating, and of course, how poetry intersects with the rest of their creative practice.
Here’s a writing prompt to accompany your experience of the episode to tide you over until we meet again!
Revisit one of the earliest poems of yours that you can find. Write a poem in response to it.
