‘And Suddenly I Can Say God: Self-Written Liturgy’ by Phoenix Yemi inside Worms 11: Faith & Worship. 🌙

The poet behind our monthly poetry newsletter, A Worm Moon, graces the pages of Worms 11 with a meditation on feminine subjectivity and eroticism. Channelling the voices of “multiple women inside my head, and multiple voices sharing my tongue”—from the biblical Eve to Anne Carson, The Story of O, Audre Lorde and Simone Weil—Yemi weaves a tapestry that confronts the patriarchal and oppressive legacy of institutionalised religion head-on.

A true gem. Read the full poem in Worms 11, out now 🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎 featuring Phoenix’s own stunning collages!!

What if the void isn’t empty at all? 🕳️

In ‘Adamantine,’ poet, artist, and lecturer Evie Reckendrees takes the traditional form of a Catholic rosary and flips it on its head. Inspired by Simone Weil, Evie pulls us into a void that doesn’t feel like an emptiness, but a heavy, breathing presence. 📿

“like Grace you fill empty spaces.”

The poem moves through the five decades of a rosary like an incantation, challenging how we see unclaimed space and daring us to break the rules. 💬

Swim into the possibilities of ‘Adamantine’ inside Worms 11: Faith & Worship. Grab your copy at the link in bio. 🐍✨

Linda Who??? 🫣

Courtney Ann LaFaive takes us through the life of America’s pop astrology foremother, Linda Goodman: a bathrobe-clad divorcée from West Virginia who turned the zodiac into pop gospel. Before Co-Star and TikTok astrologers, there she was, the first astrologer to chart on The New York Times Best Sellers list with ‘Sun Signs’.

Her life was plagued with misfortune and she steadfastly refused to make herself legible to mainstream culture, remaining a perpetual outsider and dying impoverished and alone. Despite this, Goodman’s legacy is all around us, in the plainspoken language we are now familiar with when talking about our zodiac.

Brigid by Clár Tillekens for Worms 11: Faith & Worship.🌳

A reimagining of St. Brigid’s miracles in the present day. A young woman born en caule and trailed by miracles discovers the strange, ancient power running beneath her life, whether she wants it or not.

This story weaves Irish lore and Christian mysticism in an unforgettable tale of family, ancestry, and growing up in the midst of it all.

Reflecting on the unchecked deployment of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement across US cities, Elida Silvey curates a selection of art, books and music as an offering to you, to sit with and make sense of, in the hopes of generating a sense of release.

“Perhaps, like Etel Adnan writes, there is a strange desire within all of us to matter, to matter as anyone ought to matter, and the act of saying hello is a way of extending that to others. As if to say, witness me and I’ll witness you.

This letter is my way of saying hello to you. I am here: a child of two illegal immigrants who deserved, then, as those in the US do now, to have their own realities to live for. If I am here, and you are here reading this with me, then we are in this together.”
