Originally inspired by the Asian tsunami, this project now encompasses Katrina as well. This timely, sensitive collection of poetry sends a message to survivors that help is on the way and compels readers, who aren't experiencing such disasters, to contribute to those who are in need. In the Arms of Words: Poems for Disaster Relief features 93 poems written by 94 poets of all ages, religions, ancestry, education, who hail from Italy, France, Norway, Spain, Canada, India, Africa, Serbia, and the US. Poets include Diane di Prima, Bob Holman, Ellen Bass, Nick Carbo, Marilyn Chin, Brett Axel and Lyn Lifshin. The proceeds will benefit charitable organizations for both disasters.
