I HAVE BET EVERYTHING - my life, my life - on this drifting blue, this one-note sound of burning-silver flute that calls along nerve passageways, calls through my atoms like birds of a kind, shifting, poised in a sky of tears, calculations, laughter, remembered days. Tim Bellows * A Note by Allegra Jostad Silberstein, Poet Laureate for the city of Davis, CA 2010-2012: "In Tim Bellows' poems, we find a singular brightness--and a willingness to bet his life on the 'one-note sound of burning silver flute.' His work ranges from tender spirituality to embracing plants, soil and stone. In spite of occasional 'turquoise confusions, ' he is willing to risk all to explain the inexplicable. Exploring the musical voice of this poet brings unexpected rewards." * Allegra Jostad Silberstein grew up on a Wisconsin farm and then moved to California in 1963. Her love of poetry began as a child when her mother would recite poems as she worked. In addition to three chapbooks, Silberstein is widely published in journals and is the first Poet Laureate of Davis.
