I love that poem so much, thank you for sending it into the universe... I always believe that poems (like songs) have a very specific work to do in the world, they have to go and find their people - that’s why I *also* sent it to someone else I felt needed it. When my bro died a few people sent me poems and I held on to them, and often returned to them. Maybe we should remember that, when struggling to find a reason to write?! Anyway, I just love your essays and musings Alex - though behind on my substacks... Looking forward to catching up on what I’ve missed.
