Yes, yes... it does seem as though I'm only half-comitted to keep this blog afloat. It's like an orchid I once had next to my desk in my now ex-flat in Villa Scott, Brickfields. Poor thing dies after a few months. And it's not that easy to kill an orchid. They're usually able to suffer neglect for quite a while before conking out. I hope I won't do the same to this blog.
Anyway, it's been hectic.
Just moved out of the old place and more than 2/3 of my stuff is in storage. Hurray! Feeling a bit like a nomad. And a bit like an ascetic. It's still sinking in though. Some days I feel as though I still live there.
And then some.... Poetika is still coming together. I'm only working part time now so technically I should have more time to do this. Still, right now I'm swept up with organising KL Sing Song 2007. Check it out if you have time.... time.... time....

Things You Need To Know
What is Poetika?
For about a year between 2001 and 2002, Jerome Kugan asked friends and strangers to contribute poems, drawings and short stories so that he could publish them as a handmade photocopied half-A4 sized zine called Poetika. In 2007, Jerome started asking for contributions again for a new series of Poetika. Expect Poetika#12 to come out sometime in February 2008.
