have you read any carmelita mcgrath?
she is my favorite local writer….
No, I haven’t, but I will check her out. Thanks.
Lyn Hejinian has a book-length poem called Happily, which is, roughly, an interesting meditation on happiness, time and etymology.
Thanks Mark. I will definitely look for it as it sounds intriguing. I’m also interested in book-length poems–I intend to try my hand at one someday.
