This fan-boy happened to be online the moment this gem landed. I'd like everyone I know to read this---to be invited to grieve this. Thank you, thank you, thank you David Benjamin Blower.

Dear David, I woke up feeling miserable. I know its that time of year again where it feels that misery is okay. Your poem helped me to enter the misery space more consciously. And to relate it to the present. Thank you.

Many crucifixions these days. How many Beloveds in

David, so painfully clear that YOU know.

Thank you.
