Poetry with a South Asian inflection
Poets in SA or from the SA diaspora. (I may also include poetry zines, but perhaps that needs to be a separate SP.) I added some people here who came from reccos and/or who don’t know me. Please let me know if you would rather not be in this SP. Recommendations for addition are welcome.
