Poems Up at Circle Show

Posted on January 27, 2020 by robert okaji

My poems “Vision in Far Infrared” and “I Look for You with Satellite View” have been published at Circle Show. I am grateful to the Seven Circle Press team for accepting these two pieces, which were drafted during the August 2016 Tupelo Press 30-30 fundraiser. Thank you Angela for sponsoring “Vision in Far Infrared” and providing the title and these three words: nebulosity, eon and maelstrom, and thank you, Ken Gierke, for sponsoring and providing the title to “I Look for You with Satellite View.”

  Thanks, Ken. I don’t know when or if I’ll be able to do another, but both challenges I participated in were worthwhile! And fun!

  Thanks, Lynne. It never would have been written if not for Ken Gierke’s title.
