Two Poems Up at Defuncted

Posted on December 27, 2018 by robert okaji

I’ve two poems up at Defuncted, a journal dedicated to reprinting pieces from defunct publications. All too often our work simply disappears when a publication ceases operating, so I’m particularly grateful to editor Roo Black for providing writers with the opportunity to rejuvenate their work.

Both poems are strong messages delivered gently … good that they have a new stage.
