Poet Angela Lim.

Angela Lim reads "Claustrophobia," "Lying on my back," and "Elegy for Yearling."

“Tell me—humongous cavern, tell me, wet limestone, sandstone / caprock, bat-wing, sightless translucent cave shrimp, / this endless plummet into more of the unknown, / tell me how one keeps secrets for so long.” —From “Notes on the Below” by Ada Limón

Angela is a poet, educator, and editor currently living in Bloomington, Indiana, where she is pursuing an MFA in poetry at Indiana University. In addition to writing poems, Angela has written dozens of juvenile nonfiction books.
