We include in this issue both previously published and unpublished poems as
well as a portfolio of poems by the well-known American poet Jack Marshall, and
a selection of poems by the late poet and critic Fred Moramarco.
We are also expanding our innovative poets’ commentaries feature, “Poets
Talk.” Here you will find commentaries on their work in this issue by Jack
Marshall, Donna Hilbert, and Frances Payne Adler. The disturbing and revealing photograph
that accompanies Adler’s commentary is by the Israeli news photographer, Michal
Fattal.
