'The kind of learning I’ve been engaging in has left me not knowing the names of things, or forgetting them unless I am using them at that moment. There is so much I don’t know and the act of coding is facing that lack again and again. My notes show this grasping.' (Introduction)

    'We have had the honour of editing this issue as two poets with collections published and forthcoming with Fremantle Press, and invited by Cordite in the spirit of ‘shining a light’ on the thriving and amorphous field and bush that might be called ‘Western Australian poetry’. By virtue of the no-theme nature of the issue and the blind model of submission, the ‘WA-ness’ comes from where we were both editing on beautiful, unceded and sovereign Whadjuk Noongar boodja, and our attunement to poems referencing places utterly west such as Geraldton and Perth, of which there were many. We wish here to acknowledge the collective indebtedness of Western Australian poets to contemporary First Nations poets, whose wordcrafts and poetic knowledges profoundly shape the landscape in which we and various poets in this edition write.' (Nadia Rhook and Caitlin Maling : Editorial introduction)
