As promised last week, a second poem by Catherine Abbey Hodges.

It is also Black History Month. Over at The Poetry Foundation is a long list of poems, articles and podcasts, all accessible with the click of a mouse.  Each day, the poem of the day is by an African American.

While there take a look at the site if you are not familiar with it--loaded with poems, biographies of the poets, essays and access to each month's edition of Poetry, cover to cover.
