A follow up to the post about my recent trip to Taos, New Mexico. Amalio Madueño is community development specialist and brilliant poet of Yaqui and Tarahumara heritage. I am indebted to Amalio for the thousands of dollars of assistance he’s given to SPLAB and the Cascadia Poetry Festival in terms of pro bono help. This is a large part of why we’ve been able to produce two Cascadia Poetry Festivals, help oversee a third, help publish an anthology of Cascadia poetry (Make It True: Poetry From Cascadia) and envision and create (in partnership with Cascadia College) a Massive Open Online Course on Innovative Cascadia Poetry. Hear my 2015 interview with him here. Today enjoy some postcard poems written in response to my most recent visit to Garcia in Embudo, New Mexico:
