Bio:
Marjorie Pezzoli is a poet, visual artist, and silk painter.
Her writings cover all emotions, from grief to joy.
Since 2019 her poetry has been curated in printed anthologies and online publications: A Year in Ink, Dadakuku, Heterodox Haiku, Mad Swirl, Palabra: Open Mic, San Diego Poetry Annual, Setu Journal, The Pan Haiku Review, and others. In 2025, Marjorie was given the Setu Award of Excellence for Art and Literature, and Program Coordinator for the Haiku of America Virtual Conference. She works on promotional material for the Southern California Haiku Group.

You may receive her weekly Monday morning offerings via email, or follow The Cosmic Gumball Machine on Substack. You never know what will roll out, poetry, haiku, and various art forms. Her daily ink sketching practice started on January 1st, 2026. Josh Datko of BitPunk.FM said, “Marjorie has some of the best punk-poking artwork around these parts.” She looks for words worth a thousand images during these absurd horrific times.
