The page is a place where healing happens &#8211; it\u2019s so important to prioritize the process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was 23 when my Mother died. My Grandmother died 3 years later in 2019. In the past 5 years since my first parent\u2019s passing, not a day has gone by that I haven\u2019t intentionally fought to find a sense of belonging. Some people go their whole lives without ever having to consider if they are where they\u2019re supposed to be or if they\u2019re doing what they\u2019re supposed to be doing, etc. My parents\u2019 passing wasn\u2019t, by any means, the first time I\u2019ve carried these heavy questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My entire life as a Black, non-binary trans man, who is currently experiencing homelessness, who stole toilet paper from his private school to take back to a poor home, whose Mother skipped dialysis to attend his college graduation, who founded a nonprofit only to be kicked and deleted from the project because he was \u201ctoo sad\u201d and \u201ctoo radical\u201d\u2026 for all of the reasons I\u2019ve seen glimpses of greatness &amp; love that have been taken, lost or faded too fast, too soon\u2026 For all these reasons and pages more: my poetry asks : Where do I belong? Where is home? \u201cOn Home\u201d explores themes of trauma, land, and body as elements of belonging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Artist Bio<\/strong><br><\/span><\/strong>Z Bell (gender pronouns : they\/them &amp; he\/him) is Bright and Lovely and does not give all the credit to the sun. Their writing invites a collective witnessing of experiences that hurt so much, they demand growth in spirit and in heart. The promise of rhythm and lyric in Z\u2019s poetry gives readers permission to believe in alchemy, too. Their music tells a story about a Black, transMasculine, disabled, queer femmeBoi who sometimes gives himself space to admit his own magic. Z has written, designed and self-published four zine-length collections of poetry : Drop The Beat &#8211; We Gettin Free, HeartRot, CloudLight and Pull. They perform hip-hop and acoustic guitar sets in which they rap about being a Sad Boi and sing about having a pendulum-heart. Being in the dead-parents-club gives Z charge for celebrating their deep resilient power and for curating an intentional love legacy. Complex trauma, unapologetic play, divine pleasure and dimensional healing are all ingredients in Z\u2019s work that look like prayer and wisdom on the page and a firecracker of vulnerable self-determination on the stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This hip-hop femmeBoi enjoys eating ginger, playing in lush grass and dancing at the cookout. They currently live in The Bronx.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Z has studied as a poet at the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kettlepondwriters.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kettle Pond<\/a>&nbsp;writing conference. They have performed for a crowd of 400 people in opening up for charting hip-hop artist&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.princessnokia.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Princess Nokia<\/a>, and have graced the stage at multiple local venues including but not limited to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/statehousepresents.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The StateHouse<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/lithappyhournhv\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Literary Happy Hour<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.terminal110.com\/event-info\/r-b-wednesday\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RnB Wednesdays at Terminal 110<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cafenine.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CafeNine<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Z&#8217;s most potent career background is rooted in radical political education, curriculum-design and facilitation for folx who love and struggle in the marginal intersections of race, gender, sexuality and class.
