Called Back

- Finalist, Poetry (General)
"Called Back," the last two words Emily Dickinson wrote, converses with one of America's greatest poets decoding secrets amidst the blatant. Evoked by epigraphs selected from Dickinson's work, poems in "Called Back" break through the barrier of time and bring a gender-fluid, queer voice in eulogistic revelation. Henri Cole had this to say about "Called Back:" "What marvelous, feral, eccentric, sweetly erotic poems [that]...illuminate--with electrifying language --the shadows of human love."
