Cover of the Cafe Review's Winter 2010 issue
Jack Elliot Myers
November 29, 1941 – November 23, 2009
Trying to capture a life and a spirit on a page is daunting, especially when that life belonged to a friend, mentor, and poet of incisive humorand stunning sensitivity.
It was our hope that the many voices in this issue of Jack’s friends, colleagues, former students, and fellow seekers would help those who never knew him to understand how deeply we have been touched by his passing.
To learn about Jack’s life and his extensive contributions to the literary world, please go to

Perhaps the best way to honor a poet is to read his or her work. We hope these poems serve to remind us who Jack was and how he remains with us.
