EPIGRAPHED!


It's rare for many poets to see the impact of their work. So I was heartened (and pleased as punch!) to see one of my poems from a 2006 book, The Secret Lives of Punctuations, Vol. I, recently excerpted for an epigraph in a 2014 book, Mg Roberts' debut poetry collection, not so, sea from Durga Press:



I've since read not so, sea and found it wonderful -- I heartily recommend it! I was delighted to acquire it through the recent 3rd Filipino-American International Book Fest (see prior post).  And speaking of books, here's an update on moi Recently Bought Poetry List of books by poets or about poets/poetry or including poetry:
