'A moth, a nocturnal creature, finds its way in the dark.'
In her debut tanka novel, Makoto metamorphoses, craving a flight path, fluttering through open windows, turning back at closed doors. She rests for a moment on a comforting hand, only to escape as quickly as she's caught. And in the darkest corners of this book-length sequence, she asks how much she should succumb to the light.
Makoto / Kati Mohr is a German artist and poet, also known online as pi & anne. Her aim is to explore the filters humans use, because how they see things often says more about them than about the things themselves.
Her poems have appeared in a number of haiku genre journals. 'the fine slackline' came second in the Marlene Mountain Memorial Contest 2023, organised by #FemkuMag. In 2024, her haibun 'All These Things' was honoured with a Touchstone Award by The Haiku Foundation.
