Logan Phillips writes from the most intricate and deeply set valve of his heart. His word are bilingual, binational and accessible to all. He breaks borders with his breath and rips down walls with words. His poetry melts cultures into people, languages into pure communication and races into humanity. He is the young voice of the southwest. His work is like no other in the poetry scene from style to subject matter he is perfectly unique. His performance is passionate as his words simply take him over. You will not be the same person after hearing him speak.
