Editor Bill Thompson has chosen a wealth of exceptional poems for this issue, and I'm honored to have poems in it! Thanks to him and to you, Julie, for the announcement. Best of luck with your Apollo and Daphne, Julie! It's a rich and provocative myth.
Here's a timely quotation from one of the many appealing poems in this issue of ALR, this one "Red-Letter Dates" by J.D. Smith:
Yet, clear and urgent work was set before us
And, in the clarity of hours between
Dead panic and dead drunk, I gathered how
I stood before a dread significance
That placed the solemn charge of memory
On even its most distant witnesses.
