Uncertain Parts
In my notebook, I record you each in different colours, hoping this will help me work out who is saying what, and then why you are saying it. You are not audible; I perceive you each like a thought. Some …

Angela Costi Reviews Poetry Without Borders
There is a deep sigh of relief when we come across Poetry Without Borders, an anthology willing to cross unknown terrain to bring us the voices of poets rarely heard.
