Poetics
CZ is a visionary poet who writes with compassion and careful detail about the world she lives in.
 
Publications
GoddessThe Goddess in the Garden combines mystical insight and sensual language to evoke a timeless meadow where humans and deities play out eternal passions.
 
Reviews
She draws on her study of mythology, astrology, and Jungian psychology, for a seemingly inexhaustible source of imagery.
 
Interviews
There is a quality in her work which makes all her poems hers, but Zonailo’s style does differ. Compendium is a collection of short, lyrical poetry; Zone 5 of prose. Each book is an extension of her poetic exploration and a separate expression.
 
Articles
Over the years of sitting in Grant's Cafe or the Europa and talking poetry with Lewis Gretsinger, the questions have been asked: why write? what are you saying? what are your poetics?
 
Poems
Kwaday Dan Sinichi
He is a sign for our times, / a blessing. In the transience / of everyday, we forget / the history of human life / and cannot see the future. / Now this forgotten man / lives in each of us / and we are also in action / yet waiting / to be gathered home, / the future ready to spring / from our bones.
 
Forthcoming Titles
