“You Call It Desire, I Call It Sin,” by Elisabeth Houston (Poetry 2011), has been printed on The Feminist Wire. The Feminist Wire’s Poem Suites “bring together the voices of emerging and established poets exploring a common theme.” In this Poem Suite, “four poets consider the world of objects and materiality, and the place of “things” in the landscape of the imaginary.”
Congratulations, Elisabeth!
