  2. Evolution, by Monica Kagan, is a loaded poem with striking imagery that makes one wonder about the processes and the timeline in the development of various life forms…
    It’s the history of life packed into thirty one words!

  3. Wow, reading the poem by Monica Kagan, Evolution and loving it. It takes such precision of craft to write good nature poetry, let alone nature poetry with scientific accuracy… Plus she adds in a feel of discovery and yearning. Love this work. Really nicely done. <3
