It is 2:41pm on a Friday in January and my mind is officially blown. Bravo, AD. Hearing your voice read this poem is manna. Please record/video all of your poetry, all of your writing. It is as old school as the vinyl of cummings, Frost & Dylan Thomas BUT it's going to be the archive for the future.

My Mom, God rest her lovely Soul, died when I was very young and yet I remember well that she was my first Miss Malaprop. She'd say things like "Those who live in glass houses shouldn't wear high heels." She had a point. The last 5 lines of your poem sears and I'll share this poem in my own non-social media way but it will be shared broadly for its sacred and humane insight. Hail, AD!
