I’ve also sent it to someone who is trying to have produced a major work from the amazing life story of his family. I think it would be a great fit. I hope his work will move ahead, and I always forward interesting asides to him in order to try to help this project reach fruition for him. I hope you don’t mind. We just do a lot of waiting, and then we’ll see. Thank you for your own work. I much appreciate it.

I enjoyed reading the poem though the imagery was dense and shrouded in mystery. At a psychoanalytic level, I tow this poem on to the term: melancholia, a sense of mourning for an imaginary object. The ideal of a person as an Jungian archetype is never realized. Many of the tropes used juxtapose with medieval poetry folk lore and romance. Well done. Anand Bose from Kerala

Amazing poem with vivid images…
“i’d sooner melt into her skin
than to be mere smoke, and dying
one drab breath at a time”
