'tenement moon' is Volume 6 of Poems for Inner Rooms and the sub-title for this book is 'memento mori'. If you can embrace and accept the impermanence of life & the preciousness of breath, then this volume will move you with its truthfulness. Life comes with death in its fold and every moment counts. When the umbilical cord is severed at birth, we begin our dying.
Here is one example from this volume -
i told him
to love again
the battery low
in his pacemaker
fine rain
This book of 90 poems belongs to a collection of life journals written as contemporary haiku and tanka. These are poems for inner rooms. They take poetry into the realm of spirit and are touched by zen, loss, joy, the surreal, temps perdu, the erotic, humour, truth, the everyday, and the sublime. All the six senses are here.
The book has been edited to be experienced two ways. It can be read as a storybook and as an anthology of individual poems.
ai li ‘s poems have been widely published in the UK, USA, and Japan. One of her six word haiku has been included in 'Haiku in English - The First Hundred Years' which features work by Jack Kerouac, Ezra Pound, Allen Ginsberg, E E Cummings and many others, and is published in hardback by WW Norton & Co, New York, 2013. She has also created several original linked forms akin to renku aka renga. She lives quietly and mindfully in London and writes in a rousseau inspired dream yard watched over by three old stone buddhas.
ai li is also the current co-editor of the cherita, your storybook journal, which is a monthly online journal thecherita.com, and is the founding editor and publisher of still, moving into breath and dew-on-line.
tenement moon poems for inner rooms Book 6 eBook ai li
From time to time, in the world of English-language haiku and tanka, there is a poet who transcends the form - Ai Li is such a poet. Her work places her firmly among the best of today's post-modern writers. She is an east-west fusionist, whose work needs to be evaluated among those working in both eastern forms and the more free form western traditions. In short, not a genre poet, but simply - Poet. Ultimately, this is where she will stand and be counted.After a ten year hiatus, since the closing of her London-based journal, "still: a journal of short verse," Ai Li went silent, or so it seemed, but suddenly she has burst onto the scene with a collection of six new Kindle ebooks. Here are to be found mostly new work seasoned with a pinch of old favorites. She, again, shows the power and the aesthetic of the short, short poem with the same strength, subtlety, and integrity that she has so generously given her readers all along. Ai Li, I might hazard to say, has done with the haiku and tanka forms what Emily Dickinson did with the ballad form in her day.
Ai Li sounds a range from "zen, loss, joy, the surreal, temps perdu, the erotic, humour, truth, the everyday, and ... the sublime." These six new books are theme-based to appeal to the taste of various readers: 1) the taste of shadow - night journal; 2) flame trees - temps perdu; 3) blood sisters - journal intime; 4) drowning jasmine - memories of malaya; 5) fish kiss - becoming still; 6) tenement moon - memento mori - and all priced at a pocket-cozy $2.99, easily found on Amazon.com's Kindle eBooks by simply searching "ai li".
As a long time fan of Ai Li's poems, all I can say is how sweet to have this rich lode of her work in one place. - Larry Kimmel, editor of Winfred Press
