H O M E : "Between Heaven and the Bedroom"

Kartika Review exists to serve the broad, ever expanding "Asian American" diaspora, and according to its "about" section, the crescent-shaped kartika knife symbolizes--in Tibetan/Vajrayana Buddhist tradition--the removal of ignorance and superficiality in order to aid enlightenment.

The second half of Kartika Review's latest issue includes beautiful meditations on the elusive concept of "home." This issue also marks Kenji Liu's debut as Kartika Review's new Poetry Editor.

I am beyond honored that my poem, "Between Heaven and the Bedroom," was invited to communicate with the other gorgeous pieces in this issue. Please check out my poem and the online version of the journal here: Issue #7!
