🖊️& the Prism:
✨Centering Minority Art & Experience
My words thrive between worlds: the mystical and mundane, trauma and triumph, resistance and reward. Each poem is a stone tumbled smooth by experience yet still sharp enough to cut through the bureaucratic bullshit.
Step into Poeaxtry, where Axton N. O. Mitchell uses his poetry to break boundaries and form bonds. Here you’ll discover poetry from every angle of Axton’s view. As always, unfiltered poetry that punishes peaceful pretenders, and refuses to look the other way.
Pebbles pressed beneath pages, paths run where rivers rest, poems rising from quiet corners reaching where the night sighs.
-Axton N.O. Mitchell
This space exists for misfits, truth-tellers, and anyone who’s been told their story doesn’t matter.
Whether you’re here to find your reflection or expand your perspective, these pages hold no judgment.
If you wonder about, long enough, you’re sure to find authentic expressions waiting in the wilderness.
