Nice issue! Paul Stevens' "The Relics" is particularly striking.
Congratulations to the many names I recognize (both from here and from sharing contributor bio pages with).

If this was "the form issue," does that mean that form will NOT be featured in future issues??

Claudia, I don't think form will be excluded by any means. I see that past issues contain both formal and FV poems. As I recall it, the call for subs for this issue said it was going to focus especially on formal work, and that's what the preliminary e-mails have said.
(Just to be clear, be sure you're looking at volume II, issue 1.)

- Thanks, Juleigh. Interesting idea to get the poets to comment on the form they used. I see Maryann there and Kate Benedict too: nice to rub shoulders with!

Yes, "The Relics" is a rip-snorter, Paul. I am glad to have read it.
And I also enjoyed your Horace.
(I think I see a typo - "ten-beat lines" - "ten-syllable lines"?)
Edited back to say I am still reading the mag - it looks very good.
Well done, Poemeleon.

Two Lance Levens poems there also, and I'm sure I saw them here first. Good work, Lance.

Whoa! What a great issue. Yes, "The Relics" is wonderful, and though I've seen it before, "Anger against Sapphics" still makes me cackle. And I love "Watts"! Congrats all around, and kudos to the editors.

I've already congratulated everybody in the Accomplished thread,
Paul, I wish I had written:
Bumpkins arse about in fields, along-
side the unyoked ox.
and
the peasant,
drunk as a lord, stamps out his three-step dance
on his old enemy, Earth.
And Maryann:
Clomping like a polka with oompah-oompahs
"Anger Against Sapphics" is a treat.
And Kate, "Occlusion" is tense and good.
And Lance Levens's "Uncle Izzy" really impressed me.
Sadly the next issue is for prose poems. We must wait--that is most of us must
wait.
