POSTS BY Skye Zentz
skye zentz is most generally, a human with birdlike tendencies. when feeling peckish, however, she does not typically go for worms. she has performed songs, interpretive dances, and theatrical oratories in hampton roads for decades now. she does not like writing about herself in third person. she enjoys cheese, live well-versed non-coloquial poetry in motion, small furry things (usually), playing the melodica and bad impersonations of accents. she lives in norfolk because she likes the bird sanctuary, the venue on 35th, and drinking coffee at fair grounds.
