New Linear Perspectives: The Code Edition

Trinidadian poet Danielle Boodoo-Fortuné’s code is more animalistic, more savage. NLP was struck by the visceral female voice she presented us with in her poetry; a code of blood, flesh, the moon, bones, mouths, touch and found feelings. In her first short collection for NLP, ‘The Wild Thing Is Always Near’, nature is possessed; sex is a shapeshifter; “sometimes, there is blood/ in your throat when you wake”.
