Paul, it a great genre and very welcoming to all kinds of poetic sensibilities. I hope you explore it further.

Thanks for reading. A lot of wonderful poetry and observations in this post, and he's even a great guy.

This is my first exposure to this art form I’m sad to say (though some of my “notes for a poem” when I’m jotting them down seem somewhat similar, even if unintentionally).

I’ve been missing a lot.

What a great introduction!

Wonderful. Great to see a piece by Jerry, and really enjoyed the Shapiro, too!
