Aleah Sato
{poet} {creative writer}
Aleah Sato grew up in the cornfields and forests of Southern Indiana.
The oldest of 8 children, her writing was shaped by the world
around her, the secrets and savagery of rural poverty, broken
families and the Midwest’s religious fervor.
Words and, in particular, metaphor provided a means to express
and transform secrets and memories, and more recently, the significance
of place. Working with and reinventing meaning and value through
the words selected, her hope is to give meaning to a journey many
of us share – embracing our vulnerability in all its challenges
and beauty.
It is her intention to create words that mirror, heal and transform,
and connect us to the living source.
