News at Eleven: I'm particularly excited about following

Southeast Asian speculative poetry, where Vietnamese, Lao and Hmong writers are creating some very interesting work.

Particularly noteworthy is his "Godzilla Sestina" which explores his journey as an Asian American refugee using a grueling Italian form and the metaphor of giant atomic monsters from Japan.
