The City of Albuquerque Poet Laureate from 2020-2022, Mary Oishi, brings together one Hundred Albuquerque Poets in this anthology that commemorates the Poets in the Libraries series.
The work explores nature, grief, love, and healing, New Mexico and Albuquerque..
Poets included are performance and page poets, previously and first-time published authors.
The result is a plethora of poetry, now preserved in video productions on One Albuquerque Media at each of the city\'s public libraries, and a compilation of one Hundred poems and Poets from the series in this Poets in the Libraries anthology.
Community Poets read work virtually at home and at the city\'s many public libraries.
As Albuquerque-and the world-shifted to virtual events, so did the Poets in the Libraries series.
When COVID-19 struck, Oishi was tasked with promoting and programming poetry during the pandemic.
