Any journal, especially an Australian one that is open to or dedicated to publishing poetry in languages other than English has my wholehearted support. English is not the only language and the more we learn from each other the better. We are a multicultural society with a majority of Australians being born overseas or having a parent who was born overseas. As such, our literary landscape needs to reflect our cultural diversity.
So when I come across a fabulous journal like Kalliope X, I devour its contents and then start submitting my work. I am so honoured to have my poem, Places You'll Never Go and Things You Won't See in issue 5 of this fabulous digital publication. Thank you to the editors for selecting my work.
