In this anthology, I'm right next to Nii Ayikwei Parkes' Heat, light and darkness. Parkes is a poet from Ghana. I'm also followed by Tanya Sevilla, a writer from Manila, and her poem, A Thirty-Second Reflection.
There are a lot of international voices assembled in this collection, which is refreshing. (Including Barbara Jane Reyes, I just realized!)

Ah, I'd meant to tell you I got my copy too and was happy to find your name in the table of contents!
Awesome! Eve's Visitation, on page 121, has some pretty funky things going on in it. :) I'll have to hear it read aloud some time. :)
You two are funny!
Now, barbara jane, at Bryan's book launch, I was serious about taking those photo/pictoral poems and doing something more with them - maybe posters? graphic poem novels, to capture a younger generation? Who knows, but it could be good!
You, too, B! ;D
