OCCULTURE RAW 8: Katy Bohinc on Poetry, Sociopolitics & The Great American Divide (Patreon Bonus Teaser)

Quite a different experience this time around. Katy Bohinc is back in the house. She was our guest in episode 71, talking about her previous book of poetry Trinity Star Trinity. She’s got a new book of poetry out now called Scorpio, which has garnered some really nice press recently. I think the poems mimic the persona of the astrological sign of Scorpio, the traits and characteristics present in those of us born from October 23 to November 21. Equal parts dramatic, nostalgic and erotic, but with a throughline of that elusive L word that you hear so much about. And this conversation with Katy, I think, mimics those same Scorpionic traits and tendencies. Some good, grounded energy running through here. But the experiential part of this is we recorded this in the car, together, a few days after Thanksgiving, so just after Scorpio season ended. Driving through rural southwest Ohio. And I think the mood of that was also captured. Of course the car recording does come with a caveat in terms of quality, so venture forth at your own listening risk.
