Alan, I love your poem. I was intrigued by it and the writing in the middle of the poem. I did not know what language it was. So I read it as the language of the blackbird. I always wondering about what birds are saying and try to interpret by their actions. So without knowing I could love the poem. Then I googled and discovered it was Hindu and meant brahma time. Then I loved the poem more for the meaning and the rhythm and the sound of the poem when I read it aloud with brahma time. A brillant poem. 1/29/2023 09:33:11 pm
We love that Alan's poem can be appreciated on different levels, with and without understanding the meaning of brahma time. 1/30/2023 05:31:14 am
Thank you Kat, Marcie, and Robin! 1/30/2023 05:29:33 am

Alan, thanks for the gracious commentary of my poem. It is right on to what was intended. For me stars are all about hope and doubt. 1/31/2023 06:46:05 am
Ah, yes, Led Zeppelin were very much on their folklore; 2/1/2023 08:53:37 am
We enjoyed (and are still enjoying!) the many facets of these poems. For Anette's poem, we will add that "mariposa" is Spanish for butterfly, so we liked that a butterfly's perspective was there too during this cosmic questioning and lily-appreciating! 2/3/2023 06:53:31 am
This is on my list of most favorite journals. Such good work in this issue…and the ones before it. Kudos to the editors for conceiving it and the writers who work hard to pole vault over the high bar this journal sets.
