Early Cascade by Lucia Perillo : Poetry Magazine [poem/magazine] : Find Poems and Poets. Discover Poetry.
I've only seen some of Lucia Perillo's poems here and there in magazines, but I've liked what I've seen. In "Early Cascade" I struggle a bit with the opening of the second stanza, but I think she concludes with a knockout punch.
Here's another one, this time about animals. I know there are some dog lovers out there, and I'll be surprised if they don't respond.
