Synopsis

Poems for Supper is a lyrical memoir in verse-a "poemoir" blending poetry and lived experience-tracing a decades-long marriage shaped by love, separation, illness, travel, and reconciliation. Set between America and Japan, these intimate poems move through cherry blossom seasons, kitchens, hospital rooms, gardens, and distant cities, charting the emotional terrain of a relationship tested by time, distance, and change. Drawing on Japanese aesthetics and themes of impermanence, resilience, and repair, the collection reflects on how love endures through rupture and transformation. Inspired in part by kintsugi-the Japanese art of repairing broken ceramics with gold-the poems suggest that what is broken is not lost, but reshaped. Honest, reflective, and deeply personal, Poems for Supper offers readers a sustained meditation on memory, marriage, aging, and emotional survival in a changing world.
