z.No scott.

is the benign ghost

behind the guidepost

disguised in guy’s clothes; 

a rhizome [comprised of rhinestones]

crying in tritones. 

A poet by origin, z.No’s work thrives off the page, in the Undercommons. Turning colonial language against itself, z. works to forge phonetics into a weapon of creation — exposing the spectacle of Self like/as a dirty joke.

A graduate of the CalArts’ Writing & Performativity MFA and winner of the 2022 Emi Kuriyama Thesis Award for his graphic manuscript, ynglytch, z.No’s work can be found in Archway Editions, SPOIL (Hilo Press), second factory (Ugly Duckling Presse), Broken Lens Journal and The Journal for Dominican Writers.

z.No performs wherever and whenever he can, always taking it too far.
