โ€œWrite the memory / of who we have been, / Say who we can become.โ€

Wow. And what an invocation for me โ€“ and other poets โ€“ to re-find my poetic voice and speak truth to a jaded world. Thanks for the mention, and Iโ€™m glad you found some inspiration in the horror of my poem โ€“ I went back and read the comment you left me. And as favour to a favour, you have inspired me to dip my pen back in blood, and write again!
