![]() Losing Touch
by Magda Kapa This series of ten-line poems, written between March 2020 and the end of February 2021, are about living during the pandemic, but they are not about the pandemic in a descriptive or overt sense. By regularly condensing her thoughts and emotions while also chronicling the passage of seasons and her own individual life, Magda Kapa has expressed with poignancy, sensitivity, and yes, even humor, what so many of us have experienced during this time. The book is illustrated with twelve ink drawings by Elizabeth Adams, Please click the image or title for details, and full ordering information. Congratulations and thank you to Luisa A. Igloria, as she completes her year as poet laureate of Virginia.
![]() Poet Luisa A. Igloria has completed her year as Poet Laureate of Virginia, a year during which she worked tirelessly to encourage and promote poetry in her home state, especially among young people. Having followed Luisa's work (and her practice of writing a poem every single day) since the early years of editing qarrtsiluni with Dave Bonta, having published two of her books, and knowing her as a person, dedicated teacher and tireless, generous advocate for poetry itself, we can't imagine anyone who would have done so much in a short time, and given herself to the task without reserve. Luisa, thank you.
