Her poems have appeared in Arc, CV2, The Antigonish Review and Geist. Watching “If you are not afraid of being stung by the nettles, come by the narrow footpath that leads to the lodge, and let us see what is going on inside.” (“Ward No. 6,” Anton Chekhov) My mother’s neighbour is watching us from her back garden again. It’s not her eyes I see, but the shadow she casts through the old vine-covered latticework that must have taken such small hands to make. Leona’s neck is craned towards the row of speckled green- on-green leaves that separates her yard from ours. I know what she looks like standing there, not because I can see her, but because I have seen her so many times before. No one visits her now. Not even her grown-up children. She has to get a man in to cut the lawn. In her arms she holds the little cocker spaniel who’s almost nine. All of her love goes into that hold, into the way one hand meets the other under his spotted pink belly.

  • 2019 Pat Lowther Memorial Award Shortlist
    2019 Pat Lowther Memorial Award Shortlist Listen Before Transmit by Dani Couture (Wolsak & Wynn) Dani Couture is the author of four collections of poetry and the novel Algoma (Invisible Publishing). Her work has been nominated for the Trillium Award for Poetry, received an honour of distinction from the Writers’ Trust of Canada’s Dayne Ogilvie Prize for Emerging LGBTQ Writers and won the ReLit Award for Poetry. Her most recent collection of poetry is Listen Before Transmit (Wolsak & Wynn, 2018). From the Jurors: Listen Before Transmit is a sharp lyric text that evokes a sadness in the burden of having experienced so much, gleaned great knowledge, and yet feeling powerless in that knowledge. The precision of the language throughout captures well the struggle to connect and find coherence in our fragmented 21st century. Ekke by Klara Du Plessis (Palimpsest Press) Klara du Plessis is a poet residing in Montreal. Her debut collection, Ekke, was released from Palimpsest Press in 2018; and her chapbook, Wax Lyrical—shortlisted for the bpNichol Chapbook Award—was published by Anstruther Press in 2015. Klara is the editor for carte blanche magazine, a PhD English Literature student at Concordia University, and currently expanding her curatorial practice to include experimental Deep Curation poetry reading events. Follow her @ToMakePoesis. From the Jurors: An intelligent book constructed of long poems, Ekke reflects on the strange vagrancy of meaning and slippage of sounds between different languages. Both politically conscious and aesthetically beautiful, Ekke reads like a combination of the best parts of Lisa Robertson and M. Travis Lane: brainy and beautiful meditation with a beating lyric heart.
