Tanka For Valerie Solanas Poem by LeeAnn Azzopardi
Tanka For Valerie Solanas
Made the New York Times
Overlooked, you were noted
Not for feminism
But shooting Andy Warhol
You got yr fifteen mintues
I feel some pity for Solanas, she had serious mental health issues, abuse from her adolescence, and a sexuality that put her outside what society saw as deviant. She wanted Warhols approval he rejected her, which must have been a big blow. A fitting tribute to a sad person.
