that place in a journal, that job

I'll be here under the Bodhi tree with Tu Fu.
He's sold a sheaf of poems."

What a trio, and a particular shoutout to Jessica Traynor and her glorious poems.

she's crucial for me. I love all the Death poets.

but here it has not yet.
The grills are lit–come

our table without handcuffs.”
