UNDER THE TENTED SKIN
The poems in Under the Tented Skin explore the experiences of women & girls through folkloric history, discursive memory, and spectacle. Visiting and re-visiting situations all-too-common, Kubasta asks the reader to inhabit close quarters, from early socialization of girls to rural teenagerhood, to adult womanhood and ts traps. She warns “I don’t throw the skins away / and I’ve been known to gnaw a bone.”
