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 brightnessand 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.
