The theologian
Declares that the miracle
Comes from not naming

On the contrary
For me, the miraculous
Lies in naming all.

Marti’s Latest Book

Marti's latest book of poetry, Red Wool Socks and Dark Chocolate: A Life in Three Lines (Matrika Press, 2020), in its attention to the objects and experiences in one's everyday life, affirms the sentiment that haiku and haiku-like short verses can find their inspiration beyond the realms of nature and seasonal themes. Informed by marvelous examples given at the North America haiku conference, this chapbook features culturally appropriate observations and reflections. This expansive approach to these brief, immediate verses offers a satisfying interlude between the ordinary and the sacred.
