Poetry Flowing from History in β€œYou’re Called by the Same Sound” A review of Alicia Wright’s August 2025 poetry collection β€œYou’re Called by the Same Sound.”

"Through persona and personal recollection, Wright brings old life back into the firelight β€” sometimes with a nudge, sometimes at knifepoint."

A soul dive and a psalm, Gion Davis’s Designated Stranger spans years, states, genders, and climates as it confronts the concurrent apocalypses of being trans and poor in America. Like the designated hitter or designated driver, the trans poet is brought in to get everyone home.

"A little naively, perhaps, I’m convinced there are more people interested in reading poetry than the small press ecosystem currently believes, but these readers need exposure to it, and access to it, and some tools to approach it with. Will my theory prove correct?"
