E89: Bryce Stevenson – Actual Shifts in the Wind

He’s also a pretty talented poet whose work is included in the zine “Heart Rations: Indigenous Food Poetry.” Bryce is a creative guy who also takes up carpentry work during the off season, a necessity for folks who work on an island like La Pointe.

in the only room

existence is ensured
through the destruction
of life - the results of
which, wasted.
