I have a poem up for my son Tomo at Claudia Luna’s Washington Poetic Routes Map here. The piece focuses on the Shinto shrine at Granite Falls.

The artists for the November showcase are announced here. I’m making a piece with video artist Scott Keva James.

I had the honor of being the September poet-in-residence at Seattle Review of Books which published one new poem of mine for every week in September:

“Virga“
“In the Garden of Danny Woo“
“Chiang-Kai Shek Boneyard“
“White Savior Industrial Complex“

Plus a short interview on what I’m reading.

Thanks to John O’Brien of KUOW for recording the Cascadia Magazine reading and sharing it on Speakers Forum. I’m third in the line-up right after climate justice warrior Sarah Myrhe.

RSVP now for this free storytelling event featuring yours truly.

The online version is here.

I’ll be giving the closing plenary on Day 3 and will talk about my site-specific, place-based work and read from ENSO.

In this beautiful project edited by Lee Herrick. Pre-orders available now.

Thanks to Cascadia Magazine for publishing my long poem ENSO, the central sequence in my forthcoming book. Read it here.
