"L _ _ _": A poetic study of relationships is the first in a series of collaborative projects that poet Dane Swan is loosely calling his "mixtape culture" series. For "L _ _ _" Dane invited members of his online social network to send their work on relationships. He was pleasantly surprised when he received over 20 responses to the call.This anthology is the culmination of a project that has taken numerous months, and features the unique voices that the award winning poet admires. Poets from Canada and the US inspired by nature, urban environments and island roots create the diverse work of this collection.The result? A powerful collection that travels from Gothic to urban verse, experimental work and everything in between.
