Synopsis

After the frightening results of the 2016 election, Paula Cisewski adopted a new writing practice and coping mechanism. She would invite a friend over for tea and a tarot reading. Later she would share with them the first draft of a poem inspired by the cards, the conversation, and whatever of the world had leaked in. The practice made space for meaningful communication in an uncertain time."Precise, furious, political, controversial, paradoxical, provocative, confessional, intimate, friendly, honest, metric, exuberant, crazy, subdued poetry," Grzegorz Kwiatowski wrote in praise of The Becoming Game. "Everything here contradicts and collides because this poetry contains many voices, many styles, many stories, but they all belong to one author. "
