HAILSTORM

Tiny white ice balls
bounce among pine needles and 
dance on the skylight.

F.I. Goldhaber’s words capture people, places, and politics with a photographer’s eye and a poet’s soul. As a reporter, editor, and business writer they produced news stories, feature articles, editorial columns, and reviews for newspapers, corporations, governments, and non-profits in five states. Now paper, electronic, plastic, and audio magazines, books, newspapers, calendars, broadsides, and street signs display their poetry, fiction, and essays. More than 175 of their poems appear in almost 80 publications, including VoiceCatcher, Black Lives Have Always Mattered, Kosmos Journal’s We the World Days of Unity campaign, New Verse News, Room’s Turtle Island Responds, and four collections. http://www.goldhaber.net/
