Brendan Stermer, 23, of Montevideo, Minn., shares his poem, "The Other Montevideo." Stermer is among a new generation helping to keep a vibrant poetry movement alive in western Minnesota, one that began with luminaries such as Bill Holm, Philip Dacey and Tom Hennen. Montevideo shares its name with a city in Uruguay, and the two governments have had a sister city relationship. Stermer said he hoped to one day visit the other Montevideo.
