Contributors’ notes: pp. 570-91. * Rick Peabody is an adjunct prof. at Johns Hopkins; **My poem “Byrd fiddles in Purgatory” is on p.93

Why cite everyone? In a review like this, it’s analagous to the mag.'s thickness & breadth of contributors. Normally I’d cite a few whole poems as samples, but that's impossible/unfair with this many contributors. What if I just cite a single line & tell you where to find it? Here it is: All you need to do is write. (p.61)
