Anyonita Green

Poet, Essayist 

Anyonita Green is a poet and essayist who writes about the body with unflinching clarity, with language that is sensory and visceral. Her work beckons us to look closely, to look again, and to not turn away. She anchors emotional experience in concrete detail, not theorising feelings, but embodying them.

​

Originally from Fayetteville, North Carolina and now based in Manchester, England, her writing is grounded in Southern childhood memory. In her direct, observational tone, she explores the tenderness, brutality, awe, and reverence of life.

She lends her confessionalist voice to themes of feminism, sex, relationships and intimacy, race, and womanhood.

​

Her work appears in Ink, Sweat & Tears, Propel Magazine and HerStry, where her debut literary essay will be published in February 2026. She holds a BA in English from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and an MA in Poetry from Manchester Metropolitan University.

​

Anyonita won 1st place in a North Carolina state-wide high-school poetry competition. She went on to compete at the national level, winning 3rd place, early recognition of a voice shaped by honesty, precision, and an unblinking gaze. She is currently building a collection of poems and essays that explore the fragile architectures of womanhood, memory, and the material realities that shape a life.
