Delighted to have my ku selected for commentary by @lafcadiopoetry in Haiku Dialogue. The prompt was a Self-Portrait (Inn of the Dawn Horse) by Leonora Carrington which I found quite challenging so doubly delighted it was chosen for a commentary. #haiku #LeonoraCarrington
Always lovely to have some ku in FemKu alongside some of my fav women poets. #haiku #sistersaredoingitforthemselves Big thanks to all the editors

Through visceral, bodily imagery & raw emotion, @MeanerHarker captures what it means to feel monstrous & human all at once. A celebration of courage & resilience, this personal piece lays bare the emotional & physical toll of pain, disability & uncontrollable change.
Delighted to have my poem, Light Years Ago, in this fabulous issue of @UnderbellyPress. Congratulations to everyone involved! #poetry
