These are poems about pre-Katrina New Orleans . They are specific to that beautiful city, and were written while in residence some years before the storm. Many of the poems were presented at local readings, or individually published.
Poet, writer, artist Su Zi is also the artist-editor behind the chapbook series Red Mare, which further underscores the commitment to the natural world that is consistent is all her work. Previous publications number a dozen or so with outsider and micro-presses, including Danke with Ethel-poems in the form of Tanka; Chirp with Hysterical Books-haiku about observed birds; Flux with Between the Highways-a single long poem about environmental duress.
