fall
2023
With
peace in
the
Mideast
and
Ukraine
still
outside
current
imagination,
this
fall is
a highly
stressed
season,
filled
with
appalling
imagery
and
news,
not to
mention
genuine
trepidations
about a
wider
war. We
try to
offer
views
and work
expanded
beyond
media
focus on
one
disturbing
story.
Poems
this
month
are from
C.B.
Anderson, Bruce
Bennett,
Susan
Jarvis
Bryant,
Ted
Charnley.
Sally
Cook,
Robert
Darling, Steven Duplij,
Claudia
Gary,
Andrea
Kibel, Arthur
Mortensen,
Brian
Palmer,
Carolyn
Raphael,
David
Rothman, Joseph
S. Salemi,
Jan
Schreiber, Charles
Southerland,
Susan
Delaney
Spear, and Frederick
Turner.
Rothman
and
Spear,
important
scholars regarding
versification,
are also
fine
poets.
There
was a
marvelous symposium
via Zoom
conducted
by Jan
Schreiber
and
Brian
Palmer,
with a
fine
crew of
presenters
and
poets,
including
six
in this
issue of
EPO.
An
effort
will be
made to
contact
more
interested
parties
regarding
next
year's
symposium
(sponsored
by
THINK
journal).
