Dwarf Stars 2020
by Robin Mayhall (editor)
So, my second, third, fourth and maybe fifth read through of this SF poetry anthology of very short poems…
I narrowed the selection of favourite poems down further and further. To make the decision easier, I looked for poems that created interesting imagery in my mind, wanting me to spin the story forward…
My favourite three:
1. [seeing stars] • Christina Sng
2. [stargazing on Olympus Mons] • Greer Woodward
3. [hoping for the best …] • Johannes S. H. Bjerg

These slightly longer ones are my runner-ups:
1. [Notes for the Next Letter Home] • Herb Kauderer
2. [Balancing Act] • Deborah L. Davitt with D. A. Xiaolin Spires & Gretchen Tessmer
3. [Standing Up] • John C. Mannone
To be honest, if I read the whole anthology again in a few weeks, I would probably end up with a completely different set of poems!
