Poetic Voices Without Borders 2, edited by Robert L. Giron (Gival Press, 2009)

New from Gival Press, Poetic Voices Without Borders 2, edited by Robert L. Giron, which includes "Man High," a poem by Yours Truly, as well as work by more than 150 other poets in English, French and Spanish, among them, Karren LaLonde Alenier, Grace Cavalieri, Alfred Corn, Rita Dove, Colette Inez, Claire Joysmith, Alexandra Van de Kamp, E. Ethelbert Miller, Naomi Shihab Nye, and Kim Roberts. Writes editor Giron:
The voices are passionate and enlightening while echoing a desire in their own way to transform, to change, to transcend borders, be they personal, cultural or national, in a poetic manner as if to say that within literature there isn't a border for the human spirit, for it is that energy that keeps us going.
