SHINE poetry fans, welcome back as we continue the January book review series. I hope everyone enjoys today's Spotlight feature of work by the very cool, New Age-style poet that is Rus Khomutoff. His latest work, Kaos Karma, was released late in 2025. You can read my review below, and as a special treat, listen to a selection of his work by clicking the video link he has generously provided. Kaos Karma is available as a FREE eBook (click Khomutoff's Kaos Karma poster to download). Thank you, Rus, for sharing your work with SHINE international poetry series. Through an artistic layout and experimental form, Rus Khomutoff has crafted a metaphysical journey of poetic expression. In reading work from Kaos Karma, the audience is immediately submerged into an ethereal, almost dreamlike trance. Khomutoff utilizes his skill for lyricism to draw the reader on and on into his work, but doesn't quite leave us there. There's a sort of call to action underneath these descriptive layers -- begging a reader to incorporate the spiritual into the corporeal. A fascinating read. -Samantha Terrell, EIC SHINE international poetry series Rus Khomutoff is an experimental New York poet who has been seriously writing since 2015, and has published five chapbooks. Khomutoff's poetry has appeared in TRIPLOV, EgoPHobia, & Ink Pantry. His Instagram is @RusKhomutoff. Comments are closed.
