On the fishing boat this week is Cheeraz Gormon, an intimate poet and fine storyteller. Cheeraz's book, "In the Midst of Loving" came out in 2015. In this podcast, Cheeraz tells stories about growing up in North St. Louis, performing poetry on an HBO tour and spontaneous romantic encounters (not one night stands). Best of all, Cheeraz reads powerful work from her book. The poems are sophisticated & leave you feeling raw. I think you'll love them. --Nicky
