Sivakami Velliangiri's "In My Midriff"

The above-noted (and here linked) PDF chapbook, just out from Lily Press, presents a sequence of poems by a friend of mine from South India.

Some may be interested to acquaint the Lily Press chapbook series, and/or Lily (an online literary review).

Sivakami exemplifies the pan-Indian literary phenomenon of poets writing interestingly and distinctively in English.

I have just discovered the work of this wonderful poet after watching the video recording of the Pondicherry Poetry Festival. Sivakami - I love your work.
