Our beloved poet has just won a $5,000 Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg Poetry Prize (2009). Verse still matters! We at the Accord say, "Hell yes!" and, "Hey Sugar-Bear, how about buying us dinner?"
His three prize-winning poems are titled, "On the Porch of P.X. Rutz's Log Cabin Ten Miles Northwest of Boulder, MT"; "Finding the Handwriting of a Woman I Loved in a Paperback She Left Behind Years Ago"; and "Photograph of Jack Spicer Holding a Life-Sized Plaster Bust of Jack Spicer." The titles, we are told, broke a world record for length in their weight class.
