Poetry Guest Editor Note

It is a great honor to bring poetry to Web Del Sol at Thanksgiving. Instead of a plate of mashed potatoes I have selections from some very dear friends whose work I have always admired: Michael Kelleher, Aaron Lowenger, Brook Johnson, Amy King. I was allowed to choose 10 poets and I chose five men and five women. These poets compose in new streams of language, flowing in and around, reaching for something a bit farther, expressing something wonderful in the world. I hope you enjoy. Included are never-before-published works from BlazeVOX [books]: Thief by Katrinka Moore; all the jawing jackdaw by Nava Fader, The Best Word for the Job of Mourning by Jessica Baron; FOOTNOTES TO ALGEBRA: Uncollected Poems 1995-2009 by Eileen R. Tabios; ARTIFICIAL LIFE by Michael Gessner; and Blood Will Tell by Craig Paulenich.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Best,

Geoffrey
