Dionne Brand is one of the great poets of our time. Contemporary, relevant, immediate, her work speaks to the breaking news of our time, to the emotional brokennesses, the bewilderments, the enduring struggle against imperialisms that linger through our days; the deep need and hunger for real love and caring. And so much more. In Ossuaries, her tercets push line and word along, insistently. Her voice gives witness to the individual cry. And she also reads her work very well.

I'm currently reading Journey With No Maps - A Life of PK Page by Sandra Djwa (2012, McGill-Queen's University Press). It's clearly very meticulously researched and offers great insights into Page's life and works.

People don't like poems I don't why ... I don't know why ... No body commented I don't know why I don't know why ... Can anyone find the answer... Why people don't like poems... As I can't see any comments... Although there are many literates... I don't know...I don't why...!!!

We were delighted to have poet Leslie Greentree join us for the 2013 Griffin Poetry Prize festivities to read from the work of shortlisted poet Jennifer Maiden of Australia, who could not attend. We love Leslie's own poetry, too. Her collection go-go dancing for Elvis was shortlisted for the 2004 Griffin Poetry Prize.

Back in 1996, I remember reading Rohrer's poem, "Found In The Museum Of Old Science," from his first book of poems. It is,by far, my favorite poem by the fellow poet. It was, and still is, pure magic to me.

This man stands in front of Shelley's brilliant light, looks at his own tiny shadow, and thinks it worth a poem. Then again, perhaps I missed something.
