Cafe Review/Petroff poem


The new issue of Cafe Review (Spring, 2007) has just arrived. For this issue, instead of the usual wide range of poets, the editors have selected good hefty chunks of work by five poets:Tom Absher, Coleman Barks, Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore, Stephen Petroff, and Peter Lamborn Wilson.
Stephen Petroff is a painter and poet who also works here at Gulf of Maine Books, so we are especially happy to see his 12 page piece, called The Sleep Positions of Beasts, and illustrated with drawings made with ink inherited from Carlo Pittore.
