I so admire Taylor Byas and was excited to see that she was a runner up. In fact I think she probably deserved to win, though I haven’t seen the winning poems yet :) She’s a wonderful formalist, and though I was disappointed not to see any traditional forms in these poems, the poems are oh so good in their own free versier forms. The interview was great as well :) I’m excited to someday read the American Scene book :)
