Eileen blogs about Ernesto Priego's debut poetry collection.

An excerpt from Ernesto's poem, First City:

I
find refuge
in a pub

where
one can
write on postcards


--->> This makes me think of how Mark Young writes of hay(na)ku as being "postcards from wherever their author has touched earth."

Eileen doesn't have a squawkbox, so I thought I'd say it here: Thanks for posting this beautiful poem and for giving us the chance to read more of Ernesto's work.

I plan to get my own copy of your book when it comes out.

Poetry addict, that's me :)
