FAVORITE POEMS

“I love the poem “Stones Hold Water” which is also the title poem of Zakia R. Khwaja’s collection. I like how the largeness of life and nature is contained within a petrified starfish, pebbles on a windowsill.” – Anna, IL.

FAVORITE VERSES

“Cushioned against the world, you / follow a map of rivers and I / bind verses into raft logs. The hookah / gurgles in the silence slides, from one wall / to the other charcoal in our mouths.” (Jharoka) – Ahmed, NY.
