Light and Dust Anthology of Poetry view detail comment email this

This international anthology of contemporary poetry has selected works, entire books, "visual poetry and other work...in graphics files," background material on the authors, essays on poetry, and links to related sites. Emphasis is on works "ignored, marginalized, or abused," including some that have been banned elsewhere or have "suffered benign neglect."
