The Tithe

I yearn to bury my teeth to your skin, Until they screech, a desperate din, Grinding deep, down to the bone, Just like a sin you wish to atone.

You will beg me, “Please.”

Cease, or let it be, What will it take to give you release?

To halt or go, where will it lead— What is the path that feeds your need?

Keeping the Literary Love Alive: Support The Penny University Bookstore Today! Shaina Tranquilino April 4, 2024

Dear Supporters,

In the enchanting world of literature, where stories transport us to new realms and characters become cherished companions, there exists a haven—a sanctuary for bibliophiles known as The Penny University Bookstore. This beloved independent bookstore has been a beacon of literary delight, a community cornerstone where bookworms of all ages congregate to explore, discover, and indulge in the magic of reading.

However, behind the shelves laden with stories and the cozy nooks inviting readers to lose themselves in the pages of a book lies a tale of struggle—one that we, as a vibrant bookish community, cannot overlook. The Penny University, like many small businesses, has faced its share of challenges, and the recent economic downturn has cast a shadow upon its future.

They are reaching out to you, their cherished supporters, in a time of need. The past winter has been particularly harsh, with financial pressures mounting and resources dwindling. Despite their resilience and determination, they find themselves at a crossroads, where the future of their beloved bookstore hangs in the balance.

They have weathered storms before, buoyed by the unwavering support of the local community. Your patronage, your enthusiasm, and your love for literature have sustained them through thick and thin. Now, they humbly ask for your help once more.

At the forefront of the current challenges is the urgent need to afford the annual subscription to their 'Bookmanager' software—an indispensable tool that empowers them to efficiently curate their collection and cater to the diverse tastes of their readers. Additionally, the burden of accumulating bills weighs heavily upon them, stretching their already limited resources to the brink.

But amidst these trials, there shines a glimmer of hope—a beacon of solidarity and generosity that illuminates the path forward. By contributing to their GoFundMe campaign, you're not just assisting them in meeting their financial obligations; you're investing in the very essence of our bookish community. You're preserving a cultural treasure, a haven where imaginations soar, and where the transformative power of literature knows no bounds.

Every donation, no matter how modest, carries the potential to make a profound impact. Together, we can overcome this challenge, fortifying the foundation upon which our bookstore stands and ensuring that it remains a cherished fixture in our community's tapestry for generations to come.

As they navigate these uncertain waters, they extend their deepest gratitude to each and every one of you who has lent them your support, your encouragement, and your belief in the enduring power of storytelling. Together, let us keep the literary love alive and illuminate the path ahead with the radiance of our shared passion for books.

Thank you, from the bottom of our book-filled hearts, for standing with them in their time of need. Here is the GoFundMe Link for The Penny University: https://gofund.me/3dddbc2d

On Sunday I shared at Praxis + Liberation, a.k.a. Candor/Praxis, a nourishing convening curated by Char Lee, where I read alongside the inimitable writers Ada Cheng and Maya Marshall. The invitation to "celebrate honesty as a practice of liberation"—especially in the company of these particular creatives and other attendees—felt like an incredible honor.

This event was presented in conversation with Zehra Khan’s exhibition, Fakeries, at Tiger Strikes Asteroid, an artist-run space housed within Mana Contemporary.

I read a fiction excerpt and performed a fiction song.
