Here are some of the other poets shortlisted for the Oxfam poetry in 2004 by Oxfam poet in residence Todd Swift. They didn't tell me and I just only found out when ego-surfing so maybe other shortlisted poets will spot their own names the same way.
You can download the pamphlet Poems for a Better Future here. All sales went to the Oxfam Sudan Crisis relief fund.
The winners were Isobel Dixon, Roisin Tierney and Katy Evans-Bush.
Honorable Mentions:
Robert Davidson,
Jen Hadfield,
