Reading from New Craft Book, The Strategic Poet

Editor Diane Lockward and Terrapin Books has just published another in a series of wonderful craft books. The Strategic Poet: Honing The Craft is available on Amazon in paperback and Kindle. 

Hi, Karen Paul Holmes here! In this 4 1/2 minute video, I read "Rewinding an Overdose on a Projector," a beautiful, heartbreaking poem by Sean Shearer who won a Pushcart Prize for it. I also read my poem, "Slow-Motion, Reverse-Replay, Myocardial Infarction," inspired by his and the prompt included in the book.

    Thanks for posting this video, Karen. Your poem is so touching and relatable. I want this book by Diane Lockward. Terrapin Books seems like a great publishing company for poets.
