What with all the poetry blogging that’s going on lately in these parts, it seems like a good time to point folks to Loren at In A Dark Time. Loren is a retired English teacher who’s been doing this since 2001. He’s built up an amazing roster of poets on his sidebar and regularly manages to introduce me to new works I’ve never heard of. All of us johnny-come-lately poetry people would do well to head over there.

Plus, he was the first person to blogroll me when I began, plus I totally swiped the Patrick Lane poem I posted a few days back from him and forgot the hat-tip. So thanks, man, for all the good stuff over all these years.
