What Sparks Poetry:
Moheb Soliman (Great Lakes, MN) on Ecopoetry Now
"This brings you to 'On the water;' this is where the poem dwells. Trying to dream about water, or the opposite—sleep on water. A poem as oblivious as you could get to the complaints above. There are other poems in the book that are more critically, consciously, 'ecopoetic.' When you were asked months ago to choose one and discuss your earth-centered poetics through it, a dozen others came to mind—writing that hit the nail on the head of the horse and beat it dead." |

Mary-Alice Daniel Wins the 2022 Yale Younger Poets Prize
"'This book should come with a warning—and it does, with three in fact,' said Armantrout in announcing Daniel's manuscript as the winner. 'The first section opens with the generic symbol for caution; the second with the warning sign for radioactivity; the third with the biohazard symbol...This is 'Flowers of Evil' for the 21st century. Buckle up.'"
