Thank you.

Certain poems set my soul off in multiple directions. Could write a long high-school English paper on this one.

When you mentioned the extremes of beautiful and not beautiful, perhaps one can imagine them as poles of a dialectic; embracing both poles lets us feel where our center is.

Thank you

This is powerful.

You write a poem like this that echos William Blake’s “The Tyger” but sounds so original and fresh. You’re something!

I am thrilled to have just bought 2 of your books that include poetry: One Stick Song & Face. Looking forward to reading through them as your poems are so good.

Is this one a new poem?
