AUTHOR NOTES

GLASS RAIN—poetry by Margaret Roxby

REFRACTIONS—a poem by Robert Roxby

“AN EQUITY” was selected to accompany the other two poems for this week. It first appeared in his collection, Reflections on a Lifetime.

THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS—poetry of Kathleen Roxby

“If There Is No Trace” does not reflect the author’s opinion but is a record of what she heard from many places and times. The initial inspiration for the poem came from interviews conducted among the survivors of the Bosnian War, but the poem is not just inspired by the aftermath of the violence of war but also that of resource inequities.
