“Two Poets Write” is a poetry project undertaken by Avrina and a friend Alice Yousef. 
from a very long time ago — almost another life:

Alice and Avrina, residing in two different parts of the world write poems about the spaces that surround them. Every week, they write on a similar theme, a similar word. That of space. Of crevices, corners, chimneys. The air they breathe and the sky above them. But how different are thoughts and spaces that snake into the words these poets in countries far off write?
