This is an exciting addition! Looking forward to reading her poems here.
As to favorite poems: I love and ponder poems that are specified but with keyhole details that crack open the wider, longer view. Formal poetry has the compression to do this well (while also having a leg-up with memorize-able sounds and structure). That said, naming poets here is a lame gesture - same with individual poems, for some reason?

I’m excited about this, both for the poetry and the opportunity to see one example of what writing in community might look like.
