Noa Micaela Fields is an echodeviant enjambment queen (translation:  trans poet with hearing aids) in search of the hypervivid in her one and only captionless life. No worries, she'll write the captions herself.

 

Fields is the author of E (Nightboat Books, 2026), an alterbook embracing mishearing as a vehicle for transformation. Among other places, her words have glitch-materialized in Anomaly, Literary Hub, Oxford University Press, Poem of the Day, Sixty Inches from Center, Tripwire,  and Zoeglossia, as well as various zines.

 

Beyond the page, her poems take on embodied form in ritual-performance remixes, often collaborative. Such ethereal access mischief has recently transpired at Poetry Project, Elastic Arts, Artists Space, Palais de Tokyo, Woodland Pattern, Beyond Baroque, Podlasie Club, No Nation, and elsewhere. 

 

Born in California, Fields now lives in Chicago, where she curates events at the Poetry Foundation and edits for Chrysalis, a literary magazine by and for trans youth. As a teaching artist, she has facilitated writing workshops at Access Living, Chicago Art Book Fair, Poets House, and Tangled Art + Disability, and guest lectured for classes at NYU, Northwestern, and SAIC. Come night time, she disemvowels ecstatically on the dance floor.
