Jamie Rosenthal's three poems effectively balance a somewhat playful surface tone against a subtle, controlled earnestness. Island co-founder John Plotz' "Clyde on Time" is interesting stylistically if not thematically, while Inez Hedges' clarity in "Crush" suffers only slightly from an overdose of subjectivity...
