GEORGIA ON OUR MINDS

by Art Goodtimes




Feels like we’re moving
Pushing like we did in the 60’s
Knowing it’s still kiss & kill


Former poetry editor for Earth First! Journal, Wild Earth and the Mountain Gazette and current poetry editor for Fungi magazine, Art Goodtimes was Colorado’s Western Slope Poet Laureate (2011-13) and has been poet-in-residence for the Telluride Mushroom Festival since 1981. He retired recently after 20 years as the Inner Basin West’s only Green Party county commissioner. His latest book is Dancing on Edge: the McRedeye Poems (Lithic Press, Fruita, 2019)
