The new issue of The Lyric is out, and Able Muse rules with a stunning range of poems by OUR Esther Cameron, Rhina Espaillat and Deborah Warren.

Great issue! The Lyric was an oasis for form long before other journals got into the act. Bless them.

And yet MORE world domination (I can add more world domination onto a world domination thread, no?)

OUR Richard Wakefield has written a review for the Seattle Times featured this week at the Poetry Daily web site (www.poems.com) news section. Books reviewed are by OUR Diane Thiel, OUR Greg Williamson and OUR Robert Mezey! (Greg is at least an honorary member, no?)

The review is available on-line at:
