____________________________________________
Sojourner Davidson (they/them) is the owner of Tending Verses, LLC, a poetry commissions business formed in 2023. They have been published in The Greenleaf Review, Knee Brace Press, South Broadway Ghost Society, and Dear Future Lover: Short Poem Anthology. Sojourner has been writing poetry for 8 years and has come to believe that great poetry is felt both emotionally and physically. Sojourner writes to enter into this space, always balancing how words play on the mind and body. Sojourner mainly focuses their writing on politics, identity, and relationships and how these aspects ping off each other. When not writing poetry they are lounging around with their dog, speaking with loved ones, or engaging in an oscillating list of hobbies. Their greatest hope is to make people feel through their writing.
