Notes on the People We Love
Breaking News:
1. Word on the blogosphere (such an ugly word) has it that Elaine Equi's poem, "Etudes," has been selected for inclusion in Best American Poetry 2007. This appearance marks her fourth (if I'm counting correctly) in the series. The poem was first published in the second issue of The Tiny, the literary journal edited by Gina Meyers and Gabriella Torres.
Etudes
Autumn is a solitude.
Winter is a fortitude.
Spring is an altitude.
Summer is an attitude.
Summer is a multitude.
Autumn is an aptitude.
Winter is a quaalude.
Spring is a prelude.
Spring is a lassitude.
Summer is a longitude.
Autumn is a gratitude.
Winter is an interlude.
Winter is a beatitude.
Spring is a platitude.
Summer is a verisimilitude.
Autumn is a semi-nude.
2. The Seattle Times has written a story about AK Allin and her experiences as "The Poetess of Green Lake."
Congratulations to both Elaine and Mimi.
