Show Notes

Listen to this interview and hear a selection of Jennifer's original poems. “Jennifer (or “JP” as they are known in Community Profile) is a  down to earth poet who carries within them an innate sense of mystery. Which, by chance, is also a pretty accurate description of their award-winning poetry.” -Bobby Bermea
