More information on the title -- and the ballot behind it -- is accessible on its website; the voting closes tomorrow. The results will be announced this Saturday at the RISE! celebration of Black History Month. In the meantime, take a look at this week's feature for more about Smith and her mark on the Denver poetry community.
