Bad Bitch Energy Meets Big Ideas: Adrienne Chung Talks Poetry with Zack Lesmeister on the HFR blog haydensferryreview.com/blog/bad-bit...

Honored to not only have two of my poems between the covers of Hayden’s Ferry Review, but share this space with Sean Reynolds, Ben Kline, Syndry Mayes, and many other talented writers. Gratitude towards poetry editor Zack Lesmeister for believing in my work.

The doubled thrill of having a poem in @haydensferryreview.bsky.social and sharing an issue with writers like @jrigamonti.bsky.social and @rosebudbenoni.bsky.social!

Amidst the chaos, there’s love, thank god, and I’m grateful to @haydensferryreview.bsky.social for publishing this double-sonnet I wrote for my partner @jessiepaige.bsky.social ❤️

i had the pleasure of reading from one of the most important things i have written in recent years during the issue 75 launch of @haydensferryreview.bsky.social yesterday. was both fun and emotional as I read the text. if you can, please grab yourself a copy. the essay is titled Exodus.
