Honey in the Dark by Lee Colin Thomas
My goal in signing up for The year-long poetry project was to gain insight into how poets assemble a cohesive collection out of individual poems. I had been writing and publishing poems for many years, and I entered the program with a working manuscript in hand. But I had yet to break through.
