Dana Martin is among my favorite poets, on or off WordPress. She has been posting a poem or two each week from her book “No Sea Here,” and while I regularly find something remarkable in each of her poems, I liked this one so much I formally petitioned the poet to change the title of her collection to reflect this beautiful, compassionate and disconcerting poem.

Ah, another blog to follow now. Thanks for introducing me, Jeff.
Thank you for sharing this poem.
You are most welcome! I’m not an active re-blogger type, but this poem has stuck with me for weeks since I first read it, and I thought that was reason enough to share.

Jeff, thanks for reblogging this. I am now following Dana. Very powerful, and beautiful, writing.
Wow. Thanks for introducing us to Dana. Gorgeous poetry.
Yep, it’s all powerful stuff like this one. I knew you would like this work, Emily.
