“Berkeley Postcard” is up online at Juked.

Thanks to Corinne Stanley (United Sates) and Marjha Paulino (Mexico), three of my poems have been translated into Spanish at Bilingual / Borderless. Poet and artist Corinne Stanley creates collages for each post. Angel, mask, and butterfly images grace the collage she chose to accompany my work, “I try to read the name of your perfume,” “Full Moon Ghazal,” and “Snowflake Bentley.”

“Couch Burning,” in Climbing Lightly Through Forests, an anthology honoring Ursula K. Le Guin (Aqueduct Press).

“Two Gardens” (from Berkeley Postcard, a collection of poems about my mother) won the first Rockvale Writers’ Colony poetry contest on the theme of Time. “Two Gardens” appeared in Rockvale Review Issue Five (November 2019). The prize also included a week-long residency at Rockvale Writers’ Colony. Founder and Director Sandy Coomer writes so generously here about choosing the poem and the synchronicity of the timing in relation to the residency, its location, and healing a lost opportunity.

A Cento for Hillary, in an anthology by Sixteen Rivers Press, America, We Call Your Name: Poems of Resistance and Resilience, September 4, 2018, with a foreword by Camille T. Dungy. From the press release: “This anthology, born in response to the 2016 Presidential election, combines voices of poets from across America–from red states and blue states, high schools and nursing homes, big cities and small towns–with the voices of poets from other countries and other times. From Virgil and Dante to Claudia Rankine and Mai Der Vang, from Milton to Merwin, from Po-Chiu to Robin Coste Lewis, these voices, now raucous, not muted, now lyric, now plain–join together in dissent and in praise, in grief and alarm, in vision and hope.”

Additional contributors for this anthology include (here, just one name per alphabet letter as there’s an incredible line-up of poetry luminaries) Elizabeth Alexander, Ellen Bass, Lucille Clifton, Natalie Diaz, Molly Fisk, Terrance Hayes, Robinson Jeffers, Yusef Komunyakaa, Ursula K. Le Guin, Audre Lorde, Czeslaw Milosz, Pablo Neruda, Sharon Olds, Irma Pineda, Adrienne Rich, Evie Shockley, Wislawa Szymborska, Susan Terris, Ocean Vuong, William Carlos Williams, Joseph Zaccardi and more.
