Perth Poetry Club has wonderful poets Adelaide Knowles & Jazmin Lj Tassell + open-mike, this Saturday 30th November, 2pm-4pm at The Moon Café and on Zoom.
Adelaide Knowles is here for poetry; to write it, to speak it and to hear it. She works with various muses including herself, some real, some imagined, but all present in some way in the fantasia of experiences that shape the world in front of her. She is a fan of the romantics, the unromantics, the pedantics and the rebels, but mostly she’s just peachy keen to make a scene. She believes in transformation through art and often she writes and creates as a means of resistance, searching for herself, her world, her act, her power, her voice and her truth.
Jazmin Lj Tassell
From Poetry prize winning public school protégé to plagiarizing her own words for high school English straight A's, imposter syndrome anxiety and many dark souls nights relieved. Organic chocolatier and Cafe Owner, Biodanza Facilitator, Permaculturalist, tree planter, gymnastics coach, event co-ordinator.
Jazmin Lj has not lived a life beyond reproach, e.g. dancing on nightclub podiums in skimpy costume. Nevertheless, she has travelled near & a little far, whilst mindful of the adage "no matter where you go there you are". She has many other loves, human, familial, existential, colourful and creative including tiny wild creatures and singing and dancing and all of this is the fuel for her poetry fire.
Arrived on the Perth Poetry scene in the late 90's for a poetry dance card full of events, performances, space holdings & expressions of humanity through to bold & courageous compulsions for public poetry on all manner of stages, community gatherings, trains and beloved & lovers ears, minds and hearts.
Please join us to celebrate poetry from the backroom and on Zoom,
this Saturday, 30th November 2024, 2pm to 4pm Perth Aus WST (GMT+8hrs).
