Despite Of
I have realized that despite how I feel or think, I can still achieve my goals. They can come along for the ride if they want to, but they won't be in charge of the direction I am going.

RESERVE YOUR COPY TODAY
The Small Lights Of Her Heart is a vision of a surreal #transsexuality, an existence both mystical and visceral, bound both in blood and in prayer. Its poems are the numbered hopes and tears of a young #trans #woman desperate to exist in this world. Through monster girl rituals, transpassing subreddits, lesbian second dates, and a coming-out letter as a bird, The Small Lights Of Her Heart takes the reader through the rhythmic #life cycle of trans hope and despair. This chap is offering you her gentlest glimmers, her smallest lights. Will you accept them?
Nora Hikari (she/her) is a disabled Japanese and Chinese #transgender poet, producer, and artist based in Philadelphia. She was a 2022 Lambda Literary fellow, and her work is published in Ploughshares, Gulf Coast, Foglifter, The Journal, and others. Her chapbook, GIRL 2.0 (Seven Kitchens Press, 2022) was a Robin Becker Series winner. She was a reader at the 2022 Dodge Poetry Festival and a finalist for the Red Hen Press Benjamin Saltman Award. Her chapbook Let’s Burst Like Stars is forthcoming from swallow::tale press in 2024. Nora Hikari can be found at her website norahikari.com and on twitter at @system_wires
PRAISE FOR The Small Lights Of Her Heart by Nora Hikari – NWVS #174
“Nora Hikari is well on her way to being more than just the voice of a generation, but to being an explosive dynamo of unapologetically gay art as we know it. Hikari’s intricately and intimately in-your-face writing breaks down poetic conventions to scream something new and better at the top of her beautiful lungs. Nora’s writing is equal parts teeth and hope, a balm and a brightness, revolution and a battle cry.”
–Sarah Clark, Editor in Chief of Anomaly, Beestung, and ALOCASIA, and co-editor of The Queer Movement Anthology and the Bettering American Poetryseries.

‘love is forgiving them when they mess up. it’s helping them remember their keys, their phone, their medication, their love for whatever they’re passionate about. it’s holding them when they cry because of how they got catcalled outside of Walmart when all they wanted was some Advil.
love is looking at someone, just how they are, and finally understanding the definition of the word perfection. it’s staying up later than you want to, because they need you. it’s hearing music whenever they speak. it’s wishing they were with you whenever you are doing anything fun (or anything, really).
love is still being there for them, even after you you break up. still calling them in their birthday; still having the option to call them when your world is crumbling around you. it’s still calling the pets you adopted together ‘our kids.’
love is still loving them no matter what happens.’
• • • • • • and this wraps up my mini poetry series ‘love is.’ i want to say that love comes in so many shapes and sizes; there is not one definition for the word love. we all experience differently, and it’s different every single time you experience it. and if you haven’t yet, or you don’t want to, that’s okay too. love can be platonic! every time of love is wonderful and amazing and unique.

To be completely honest, I have had trouble writing anything I feel good about lately. Words aren’t flowing like they did a month ago. I’m not sure why, but I’m working on it. I apologize for low quality content in the meantime. ~ #napkinpoetry #poetryseries #napkinwriting #spilledink #artforms #writing #poetry #sunday #poems #writer (at Columbus, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByNEvxwld6d/?igshid=1gqwv90vyx4dn

It is funny / That collaboration and conflict / Begin the same way / C's and O's / I's and U's...Trust me I know / Take that perennials. #3amblackpoetry #poetry #rezarites #poetryseries

Inner Echoes
On this journey of self-discovery, I have come to realize just how many of my thoughts aren't really mine. Instead, I have taken on the voices of others. Believing their truths and holding onto their thoughts. Realizing that my inner echoes are coming from the external echoes.

“You are an itch
I cannot scratch.
I could rip my skin apart,
drain the blood
from my veins,
and I would still
feel you.”
