Speaking of BirdsPiledLoosely, one of my election poems survived its submission guidelines and was accepted into its anthology of election-related writing, called Who Want the World Like It Is? My poem "November 2016" was also written during the Tupelo 30/30 challenge. At the time, the nasturtiums in our front yard were in massive bloom, maybe massive rebellion. This poem is an attempt to quiet the noise of the election just a bit.
