This volume includes The Mayor of Baltimore and its companion piece
Anthem from Kristen Kosmas, whose writing invents its poetry from the
blunt, the found, and the discarded. A coterie of friends and strangers
gather to celebrate a modest electoral victory. Oblique poetry
alternates with the syncopated clatter of small talk. A brokenhearted
refrain of disappointment underscores, and a tiny aria of
self-revelation hangs in the empty space after the guests leave.
