I’ve been fortunate enough to have several poems from All Day I Dream About Sirens surface in some pretty incredible places lately.
Check out an excerpt from DISNEY SONG published in the January/February Issue of THIS Magazine, PARTHENOPE & VIRGIL published on the DUSIE blog, and last but not least, the sprawling and angry THE IDEATION PROJECT (with accompanying audio!) published in Issue 40: Winter 2018 Issue of The Puritan. Thank you for reading, friends! 9/24/2018 11:21:11 am
Looking back, Disney's adaptation of 'The Little Mermaid' was actually quite problematic. It teaches young girls that in order for them to find true love, they have to give up who they are. That is exactly what Ariel did in the movie and it made her miserable. She left her family and her friends to try and be with the one that she loves. Although it is okay for us to go after what and who we love, we must never give up our own identity because our true love will accept us for who we are. Comments are closed.
