Anthropocene Love Poems, Intimacy, and Climate

Annette Hakiel and Issue 28

Annette Hakiel is a poet whose work places intimacy, ordinary life, and ecological unease inside the same field of attention. Issue 28 records her under the entry “Two Poems.” The surviving page preserves the author and entry title while the individual poem titles and texts are absent.

Anthropocene Love Poems

Hakiel’s 2026 collection Anthropocene Love Poems was published by dancing girl press & studio. The press identifies her as the author of four chapbooks and describes a substantial body of poems and other writing published online. The collection brings romantic and domestic feeling into contact with climate change and planetary instability.

Love under ecological pressure

The title of the 2026 collection gives Hakiel’s later work a revealing frame: love remains personal, embodied, vulnerable, and specific while the surrounding world carries environmental pressures that exceed any single relationship. Tenderness and ecological anxiety can occupy the same poem without collapsing into abstraction.
