and so the opening is a kind of end. and so for everything said there are immeasurable unsaids. and so even as it ends i am given new moments. and so i go back to the poetry to look for myself and find my self waiting for me. and so i chime that old, old bell, and a new wave of echo begins. // from “The critical and the malicious grow side by side. Pay attention”. #jabscollabs #twenty-five
Will be holding a writing workshop on May 1st called “Impulsive Brevity”, teaching the vignette form as a way of ideation and draft building! If you are someone who finds writing scary but wants to do more with it, if you are interested in text-based zine-making, if you want to get into poetry but are not sure how, this is the workshop for you! 🥳 tix link in bio. I have 8 seats left!
Excerpt from “Grief is a slow embrace. Remember to come apart”. This one is written for you love, It’s a little past the one year mark and you’re so often on my mind. I hope you are well. // #twentyfive #vignettes #jabscollabs #exhibition
moving into Easter weekend. making some space in my mind and life for the things of importance. of sorrow and incomprehension. of injustice. of fear and abandonment. of healing in relationship. of living in grief. of leaping into resurrection. and how life follows after that, all messy hope and failures and joy. how this year i have makoto fujimura’s artist heart and faithful contemplation to accompany me on my wandering. ♥️
Excerpt from “This world will belittle you for caring too much. Care anyway.” // for the second half of poetry month I’ll be sharing lil excerpts from the zine that will be accompanying the “Twenty-Five” #jabscollabs exhibition. Limited 50 copy run, handmade 😌 The pieces in this zine are brand new creations. I didn’t know I had some of these feelings still in me. The editing process is always where I carve my heart out lol. All this to say, hello world, writerly jasmine is visiting for a while, say hi. 👋 #poetrymonth
“Sometimes good tea surprises us in places we don’t expect. Do we reject the encounter based on our prior assumptions, or do we give every blend a chance, regardless of the pathway it took to meet us?” Join @chrwonstie & i on Apr 26 as part of Twenty-Five, for an intimate tea / chocolate tasting, using flavour as an extended metaphor to talk about healing, presence and self. Come brainstorm and create with us, and savour the presence of 6 chocolates that say “Here I am” and the posture of 6 teas that assure, “I am Here.” Ticket link in profile 😌
I share #wislawaszymborska’s “Under One Small Star” often because its such a tender and exquisite piece of writing. But I confess I really enjoy the first section of the poem in Chinese and the last section of it in English 🌟 My apologies to chance for calling it necessity. My apologies to necessity if I’m mistaken, after all. Please, don’t be angry, happiness, that I take you as my due. May my dead be patient with the way my memories fade. My apologies to time for all the world I overlook each second. My apologies to past loves for thinking that the latest is the first. Forgive me, distant wars, for bringing flowers home. Forgive me, open wounds, for pricking my finger. #poetrymonth
a little over a year ago 😌 enjoying consistent 20s weather with some 👌👌 ice cream
My reflection on translating this poem is, “curse the necessary subjects and prepositions!” 😂 Excerpted from #soniawong’s “So Much Noise” • And so you return in the same old wet white splash, unable to flow to the deep of dreams In the dictionary, I can’t locate your name So you pass again, like the dusk and loss of song even the coast will remain elusive, why not hide, I will not recall the shape of a whale again • #poetrymonth

#AprilBBs to @ayebbey re: take pauses, slow down; and remember to not be too hard on yourself and always take care.
#AprilBBs to @ayebbey re: eventually our uncertain choices from the numerous will lead somewhere, they were meant to happen. but to walk with confidence, we must trust ourselves more.
#AprilBBs to @ayebbey re: a drop, sometimes even a small drop creates a ripple; how do we find calmness in the ripple; like the waves splashing then trickling, washing sand over rocks, then retrieving back.
#Aprilbbs to @ayebbey re: that every person depends on another. and is capable and important to another. like roots growing, waves flowing. we all need each other.
#AprilBBs to @ayebbey re: we grow from our seed, grow on our own paths. we branch out, cross, and move together; companion on our journeys ahead...the beans are sprouting!
#AprilBBs with @ayebbey of her // patience for my impatience; a trust, an honesty, an understanding i trust; care i can give back; different yet similar, and really appreciate. (my awkward love proposal to my fellow april bb as we move to the second half of the month)
#AprilBBs with @ayebbey proud // navigating unknown worlds. that even with fear, i know i can move forward.
#AprilBBs with @ayebbey why // because i don’t know where. because i have an expectation and i’m carrying theirs. because i don’t know how. because you can’t hold on forever. _____________________________because i just want to know.
#AprilBBs with @ayebbey tell younger me // they’re not as important as you think. _____________________an ongoing reminder to current me.
