Welcome back to another great issue of BlazeVOX! I have had the great honor to work as a full time poet for the past three months. In this time I have worked to my full, if for nothing else than to hide from the bitter winter we had in Buffalo. I was lucky enough to have prosperous writing moments, able to directly focus in BlazeVOX [books] publishing efforts, and gathering for this issue of BlazeVOX2k8. This is our opening issue for our eighth year and the biggest so far! There are no statements here; only great art from great artists. Some you know and many you may not. So give a good look and watch now this all unfolds into a splendid afternoon. As always, we take a good look at the Buffalo poetry scene in BuffaloFOCUS. This time we have a double shot from two wonderful poets, Michael Sikkema and Russell Pascatore.
