Meritage Press winners of "Babaylan Speaks" Holiday Poetry Contest [US]:
Winner: "The Fifth and Careful Season" by Joel H. Vega
There is a lyricism to this poem that is ominously compelling. The question nature asks in this poem "What is an army of itinerant moths?" will go unanswered. This is an environment of post-trauma. And, its own orphans have coalesced, have faded into the stormy backdrop of war.
