Grant Clauser 
Nice selections, Grant. I’m especially partial to “Car Plunges Into Susquehanna River” and “The Sea Mother.”
Thanks Cleveland. I hadn’t looked at “The Sea Mother” in years, but came across it when putting old journals on a new shelf.
“What My Wife Doesn’t Know About Bass Fishing” is such a good poem. I’m not a fisherman at all – last time I went fishing was fishing for Sunnies with my dad when I was seven – but this poem is really pretty and evocative. Just wanted to say that out loud. Found your page by tracing you out from your Philadelphia Stories poem this month (Want of Fire).
Thanks Thomas. That poem appeared in a sportsman TV show read by someone with a real good-old-boy voice (not me). I’d post the link to the video but I lost it a few years ago and can’t seem to google it up. It’s one of the few publishing credits I was actually paid for.
I’ve been enjoying your poems with Versedaily yesterday calling my attention again to your work. Especially love that first One Art poem – yes the taste of a mountain stays for a long time.
