Dear Poetry Fans, Poetry & Poets in Rags We headline, with the state of global expression. Reporters Without Borders has issued its annual report. The type of persecution that any country applies to journalists, applies to and includes poets. Within the article, is a pdf file, which gives a report of each country, page by page. Small world. Another week to add to our Great Regulars. Caron Andregg, Poetry Editor of BellaOnline, has a nifty article for the occasion of Mothers Day. That's the same publication that brings us, Linda Sue Grimes, Spirituality and History editor there, good friend to IBPC. The second is Guernica Magazine, which brought us an article by one of our other Great Regulars two weeks ago, Andrew Varnon, who regularly writes for the Valley Advocate. Guernica brings us two items with poems, translations by Robert Bly. Check them out. On the new Poetry & Poets in Rags blog--I was surfing around, looking for ideas. I added the links and counter, which are on the bottom of the main page. Some I picked up from AnnMarie Eldon's blog (who just had shoulder surgery), some from Frank Wilson's, some from Ron Silliman's. If you know of any blog things I should probably be doing, please let me know. Now that I'm officially a blogger, listed by Technorati and counted by StatCounter, instead of linking you to some terrific discussion at say The Critical Poet or Inside the Writer's Studio, allow me link you to what I thought was a super lead in for a blog discussion. Jude Goodwin used for her post, simply a rejection letter she received. Here it is: Still Fingers: Pedestal Magazine--Rejection. By the way she also has a new poetry forum you should check out: The Waters. Thanks for stopping in. And get to the news links, while they're still hot.
