What Sparks Poetry:
Michael Dumanis on Language as Form
"What determines the facts in question is the language, as well as the constraints I place on myself as an author. This is an autobiography that is not capable of ever saying 'I' or 'me' or 'mine,' as no words it uses can begin with any letter other than A. As a result, the poem is composed almost exclusively of sentence fragments." |

"Gabriella Miranda: Poetry Helped Her Feel 'Like A Regular Kid'"
"Now 17 years old, Miranda has just been declared a National Student Poet, representing the West region of the country. Only five are selected every year ... Being a National Student Poet requires a service project. Miranda plans to focus on students of color, particularly women, to help them have an experience like she had in third grade — to feel seen and included in Utah."
