Each section starts with a woman's portrait and follows with her unique rising voice in asemic writing, and to word through poem. Asemic writing inhabits an essential space of expression, depicting what is not yet fully denotational. It embraces the mystery between silence, what is yet to be spoken, and the semantics of known language. What is represented are the feelings or ideas that the word, or markings, suggests, to the speaker, and to the viewer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKarla Van Vliet\u003c\/strong\u003e is the author of \u003cem\u003eFrom the Book of Remembrance\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eThe River From My Mouth\u003c\/em\u003e, collections of poetry and paintings, \u003cem\u003eFluency: A Collection of Asemic Writings\u003c\/em\u003e, published by Shanti Arts, and a poem length chapbook, \u003cem\u003eFragments: From the Lost Book of the Bird Spirit\u003c\/em\u003e, published by Folded Word.\/\/\/Her poems have appeared in \u003cem\u003eAcumen, Poet Lore, The Tishman Review, Green Mountains Review, Crannog Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e, and many others.
