Standouts for me: I liked Ella's poem for its easy sensuality (which is hard to pull off well), and Dale's especially its conclusion, and Mercedes poem was one of those ones that I always wish I can write, but never can. I loved how visual and panoramic it was, and how it had such a haunting quality as it circled back on itself at the conclusion.
