from Out With Lanterns, a daily poetry practice
This is the very best thing I have read in the past several years. You continue to amazing me and reach the very inside.
Wow! Thank you so much Christy.
I rarely make craft comments. I love this poem, and I'd suggest deleting "and I say I ought to"
simply "let them fall" (let them fall!) 💜
Thank you Amrita! I like the rhythm of the extra syllables, I think, but I will keep your idea in mind. These OWL poems are almost always first-ish drafts so they're likely to change, for sure.
Aho!
