agrimeer
those three are perhaps some of the best writing i have read ... poetic, urgent, palpable
measuring, testing, making something from something something from nothing
beautiful, tragic ... full speed ahead at no-go
one feels the weight and the wait
excellent writing, at least to my tastes xox piph

Much Love, Brom.

E-piph and Bromanoph, thank you both, for the read and also for the kind words.
I suspect that, during the last year or so, y’all may have felt something similar to what I’ve described.

Segwaying off the influence-of-covid thread in Open Discussions, here are examples of how covid changed my own course: Covid Art REsource (CARE) agrimeer, first march into april is a very fun title. My only quibble is the line, "where you went to" doesn't need the ending adverb, to. In fact the rhythm is better without it. This from a retired English teacher. Otherwise superb writing.

Agrimeer, "a shut in probably speaks to us all. Favorite line, " ithink to wake him, but can't think of a reason why". That is a thought to be explored. At once a selfish thought, ie. I don't want to be alone. And also a sharing thought, i want to hear you. Again, very nice writing. I look forward to more.

I'm glad I could convey those early-covid feelings, the ones that you describe, Petra.
I'm not sure if I want to be so proper, with that 'to; maybe the poem would work better without it. It's the little things, after all.
