Poems from The Spirit in the Words:
Kimmika Williams-Witherspoon . Sandra Abena Songbird Naylor . Larry Jaffe

Last week Larry Jaffe gave us his diary account of his late-1999 trip to New York to participate in DaimlerChrysler's The Spirit in the Words poetry program -- an adventure in corporate poetry entitled “3 Days Biting Poetry in the Hands That Feed You.” The work of many of the winning poets at this gathering has not until now been well represented on the Web. We are proud to be able to offer a sampling of their poems for you this week.
