A celebratory realisation in prose poetry of the process of exploration and affirmation of self-identity among the myriads of possibilities open to those of us who choose to live outside the usually proscribed social norms. Even in 21st century Australia, the process of arriving at an openly-declared internal life as a same-sex female-attracted Lesbian remains fraught.
This creative excursion into text, is brought to life through reading out loud, for the enjoyment of the rhythm and flow of the sounds of the words as the playful narrative unfolds as a metaphor for a deeply personal process.
INTERSECTIONS was specifically composed for a new anthology of lesbian travel writing, Walking to the Edge, to be launched on 21 March 2021, at the Jika Jika Community Centre, Melbourne, Australia.
