Melineh Ani Yemenidjian at the Ugly Mug!

Melineh Ani Yemenidjian’s love affair with poetry is palpable—like floating through a storm. Her intention is not merely to write words, but to infuse each page with universal truths. Through illustrious metaphor and manic measure, she reconciles the fractures between her heritage, a nourished yet isolated childhood, the destruction and joys of love, undiagnosed bipolar disorder, and the affirmations born of recovery. Her work has appeared in Jewel City Review, VoiceCatcher, and HyeBread Magazine. You can often find her performing at open mics across Southern California, including The Wicked Wolf and The Ugly Mug. The Split Pomegranate is her debut poetry collection.
