Which poem from Linebreak would you nominate for a Pushcart?

By Johnathon Williams on Oct 26, 2009

Today’s mail brought an invitation for your humble editors to nominate poems for the 2009 Pushcart Prize — a first for us here at Linebreak. While we kick around ideas, I thought our readers might offer some additional wisdom. So I open the question: Which poem published this year on Linebreak would you nominate? Refresh your memory in the archives, if you like, and leave your answer in the comments.
