Ten Thousand Waves ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I’m back from a remarkable Hyderabad experience of poets, poetry, haibun, biryani, philosophy, and people… too much to put so quickly into words.

This becomes the river of never-ending gurgles. With Wang Ping, Linda Ashok, Nabina Das, Mani Rao, Jyothsna Phanija, Christopher Staudinger, Oliver St. John, Kamalinee Mukherjee, Jennifer Robertson, and Sunita Prasad.

My poem, ‘Baby’ was liked. Claps and smiles are a poet’s earnings.
