I’ve spent the last three years in China swearing blind that I only write about gruesome beauty and that my poetry is never political (admitting to being a political poet in China is never a good idea). This is a position I’ll now need to revise.

My poem, ‘Choeung Ek’ has just been published in ‘In Protest: 150 Poems for Human Rights, the anthology also has work from The Poet Laureate, Ruth Padel, and many other fantastic poets.
