The Hermit Poet

One of my friends from Kundiman has just joined the poet-blogging world — take a moment to check out Jee Leong Koh’s Song of a Reformed Headhunter. He’ll be posting poetry and seeking feedback on a regular basis.

Villanelle, pantoums, sestinas, sonnets — Jee Leong writes them all, but every case the story and language cast a spell so strong we might miss what is happening formally because we are so entranced by the telling.
