On May 1, 2025, Issue 69.2 of Westerly Magazine released from the University of Western Australia. I am proud to have three new poems — all entitled “Motherhood Poem” and decidedly challenging the sweetness expected of any woman writing through the birthing and parenting experience — in its pages. I encourage you all to check out this gorgeous issue and to follow the work of this uniquely curious and invested editorial team. You can purchase a hard copy or PDF version of the journal here.
