Deborah Edelman, CruMoPoPerFest 2010
R.I.P. Deborah. We've lost one of our beloved local poets and past host of a night of poetry during the 2010 Cruellest Month Poetry and Performance Festival.
Poets, simply, never die. Death may be a word or a theme in a poem, but poetry and poets long ago defied and won out over such unimaginative notions of finality.
You are a bird feather in the stream, and the stream itself. Until, until.
