White Enso an online journal of Japan related writing published three of my poems:
"Breath" -- one of many ways to breath in chaos and breath out steadiness
"I Live without Heat" --set in my former apartment in Japan, the difficulty of being a foreigner
"Tsuyu" (rain season) -- about learning kanji
Poetry Northwest was the first renowned journal that accepted one of my poems. I'm very happy to have a second poem in PN years later. "Freight" may be a difficult poem to read due to its content of abuse but it also shows a path of working through damage. Poetry Northwest is a print journal but poems from its issues can be found online at https://www.poetrynw.org.
