About
Ashia S. Ajani is a sunshower, a glass bead, a carnivorous plant, an overripe nectarine hailing from Denver, CO, Queen City of the Plains and the unceded territory of the Cheyenne, Arapahoe and Ute peoples. Ashia is the author of one poetry collection, Heirloom (Write Bloody Publishing, 2023) and a forthcoming collection of lyric essays, Tending the Vines (Timber Press, forthcoming 2026). Their writing is a kaleidoscope of their work as an eco-griot and abolitionist.
