“There's enough honey to go around / But first you gotta be bold and sit down at the table.” — Gina Cornejo 

“May the places where I am porous and wandering be evidence of life.” — xavia-margrith miles 

“The tears remind me that I'm still in love with Freedom / because you can recognize lovers of Freedom by their scars.” — de’Angelo DIA


Sometimes our chapters create experiences that defy synopsis and summary. That's how it feels to watch this CreativeMornings/Asheville talk. They invited three Asheville-based artists to perform spoken word poems on the theme of corruption: Gina Cornejo, xavia-margrith miles, and de’Angelo DIA. So sit back and listen to their gorgeous and powerful poems. In miles’ words, this is how we “try to maintain sweetness in the midst of corruption.”
