Newell - “POCHI-GRAPHIC" “POCHI-GRAPHIC" Naoko Fujimoto’s poem, “Pochi or Kuro,” was published in MORIA’s Issue One (2017). We will reproduce the original text below so that you can compare it to the completely transformed graphic poem, “Pochi-graphic,” above, which we publish here for the first time. We’ve enlarged the visual field so that readers can see that, the words have been integrated into the images so that a wholly new piece of poetry results. The visual elements speak to the text, and vice-versa, with the echoes of the “graveyard” appearing in the cut-out rectangle papers lining up in rows, and the text itself meandering down the page, sometimes right-side up, sometimes upside-down, as unsettled as the relationship portrayed in the lines. Pochi or Kuro Following the ghost dog down, Father implanted a stroke. It is resting in my great uncle’s side of the graveyard with people I had never talked to. Mother said, “The dog should not be here. Bad luck for ancestors and descendants.” Father used to say, “It ate its own shit.” Its name was forgotten; Pochi or Kuro, a common Japanese dog’s name. When Father jogged in the morning, the dog waited by the telephone pole. It barked, and Father replied, “I am struggling with a new computer system.” The dog sniffed his hand as if saying, I smell nappa-cabbage. It licked him three times, Don’t drive today. You partial, vegetable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b4e0f8afcf7fd5b845fbcf6/1547106552283-8RUNPCR05R85E1UURKAS/FINAL+PNG+GRAPHIC+POETRY+FLYER.png ATHENA 1 - "A Picture Says a Thousand Words: Graphic Poetry with Naoko Fujimoto and Angela Narciso Torres" by David B.

She wrote and self-published a 450-page book on how to help teens read better and think more clearly. Fortunately, the current piece is as short and to the point as that book was discursive. In Sylvia's opinion, the last three years of her life have been the happiest. She has her health (more or less), her work as a private reading tutor, and a new relationship with a funny, loving, 96-year-old man she met on a hiking trail. She says they're in it for the long haul.
