What I WRite
Publications
“The Ginkgo Tree”
Visitant Literary Magazine
“I imagine you beyond the Peach Blossom grove/
with the fisherman and boys,/
in a land of flowing waters/
where mortal men do not exist.”
“Hibakujumoku, or Hibaku Grandmothers”
Rigorous Magazine
“The hibaku grandmother trees returned to us./
If you are quiet, they will tell you/
the absences caused by man’s inhumanity/
and their own survival songs.”
“blackfruit”
River Heron Review
“there is a chokecherry tree on Sethe’s back/…tonight I called my people/and we wept”
