FWIW, my comments on the Best American Poetry 2009 are over at the Clevelandpoetics blog, discussing where the poems in the volume originally came from.
I'm way late on this post, but just catching it now. Lance Larsen was one of my poetry professors when I was a BYU student. A hearty congrats to him.
