and in that moment

shoulder to shoulder

heads tipped back

we breathe the same poetry

we breathe the same air

we breathe

Hey guys ! THE COLOR ISSUE is officially out ! Buy now at https://www.ricespicemag.com/shop/issue1

I took a break from creative writing once the pandemic started last year and have been working on a zine. Our first issue includes art, prose, poetry, and photography, along with two interviews written by yours truly. I am so excited when the issues will arrive at my house, and it would mean the world if you shared with your friends and purchased a copy. 25% of the proceeds will go to the Equal Justice Initiative.

ripples of starlight

dusty snow

melted water

popping stars

deaf ghosts

burnt lips

cloaks of dreams

dunes of ice

empty roads

the blue of the unknown

violet reflections

airport bustle

my mother told me of fallen angels

blurs of light tumbling down onto earth

the taste of golden ichor blooming into bright blood

wings of fire, stained feathers shedding

angels destroyed by human nature

I am starting a magazine called Rice & Spice Magazine! It’s a platform for my generation of Asian Americans to express themselves through writing(stories, poetry, and articles), art, photography, and graphic designs. Check out my challenge to enter!

Non-American Asians are allowed to submit Guest Writer articles about their experiences, or their thoughts on Asian Americans’ experiences. Non-Asians can submit Guest Writer articles about their view on Asian Americans’ experiences as well. Topics can be anything.

Please provide a short 3rd person bio, whether or not you’d like to be a regular contributor, and what type of Asian-American, Asian, or Non-Asian you are. If you prefer to submit art and photography through google forms, there is a link in my bio(https://linktr.ee/honeyedboba).

The biggest 2 cover stories will be about LGBTQ Asian American community(your personal experiences, your thoughts, etc.), and the Asian community alongside BLM.

Deadline is July 16, and message or comment if you have any questions.

it’s the summer of ’19

camp in california

it’s never changed

same weeks, different people

we spend the long summer days

sipping cups of sticky iced lemonade

passing notes scrawled on squares

torn off from lined paper

playing games of frisbee in the morning mist

laying on the grass watching marmalade sunsets

strumming broken ukelele chords, singing with the stars

eating buttery popcorn during late night movies

watching the sun rise, drinking passion fruit juice

summer camp days,

summer camp nights

watching the sun set

watching the sun rise

living like summer was forever

feeling like we’d never grow up

it’s the summer of ’19
