Elisabeth A. Belile

Liz Belile is an eavesdropper who crafts everyday language into poetic and political metaphors. Her book, Polishing the Bayonet, catalogs poetry and prose from this unrepentant feminist, activist and performance poet. Listen to Belile’s recording of the poem “Other Women,” from her solo spoken word CD Your Only Other Option is Surgery on New Alliance Records.

“Liz Belile is a hot vocalizer of LA TEXTE, a stomper, a witty raging feminist, a pure bundle of NERVE.” – Anne Waldman
