I am the author of two books of poems &quot;Payday Loans&quot; and &quot;Equal to the Earth&quot; (Bench Press). My new book &quot;Seven Studies for a Self-Portrait&quot; is forthcoming in 2011 from the same press. My poetry has appeared in &quot;Best New Poets 2007&quot; (University of Virginia Press) and &quot;Best Gay Poetry 2008&quot; (A Midsummer's Night Press). Born in Singapore, I now live in New York City, and blog at Song of a Reformed Headhunter (<a href="http://jeeleong.blogspot.com" [2] class="linkification-ext" title="Linkification: http://jeeleong.blogspot.com">http://jeeleong.blogspot.com</a> [3]).
