I’m delighted to offer Episode 52 of Open Windows. My program today is the first of several programs that focus on poems written by poets living in the various regions of the United States.  I begin with some poets from the American Southwest. I have read poems by several poets from the Southwest in earlier programs, their work illustrating various themes I’ve explored. In today’s program I read poems by poets from the Southwest whose work I have not included in my earlier programs. They are Jerry Bradley, Katherine Hoerth, Lyman Grant, Nathan Brown, James Hoggard, Juan Manuel Perez, and Benjamin Myers.
