Maximalism is the theme this month, and each poem was selected for a variety of extravagances. Many longer-than-usual poems, some bursting through the column's width, all trembling and filled past the brim. Don't overlook Michael Bickford's love letter bookending the issue.

January, to me, is a month of relative stasis. Here exists the post-holiday slump, the cold (for those of us in the north) essentially unchanging; I feel as though I sleepwalk through this month that has no character but winter.

For all that, the days begin again to lengthen. I try to strike that balance in this issue, and represent also the spirit of Martin Luther King Day (the one major holiday in this otherwise barren temporal land) with the first of Featured Poet David Banach's poems.

Issue #80 out today! Featured Poet David Banach, supported by Stephanie V Sears, Louise Wilford, William Doreski, Radian Hong, David Mampel, Changming Yuan, McKinley Johnson, Jamie Brown, Charlotte Porter, and Jefferson Fortner! www.neologismpoetry.com/January-2024/
