  1. 1. Dead Girl Cameo

    A Love Song in Poems

    Dead Girl Cameo is a poetic collection in which m. mick powell interweaves memories of queer Black girlhood with reimagined lives of music icons—Aaliyah, Whitney Houston, Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, Phyllis Hyman, Selena, and others—to explore sexuality, survival, and queer mourning. Through sensual imagery, speculative verse, and lyric wordplay, the poems meditate on loss, friendship, love, and the afterlives of stardom, imagining how these women’s stories shape possibility and resilience.
