I read the interview and the other poems there, too - am passing along to a couple of family members who will appreciate. Powers of observation so very finely honed, it hurts to read... but too compelling not to.

Although late to reading it, I just finished Unbroken this week, and the poems by Anders Carlson-Wee feel like a footnote for that story.

I could never live that way myself, but I have such admiration for folks who put their art above everything else. Folks who live their lives unburdened by the daily hoo-ha, just moment to moment, risk to reward and back again. This is the line I'm taking with me today: "We must be the pupil that swells in the coming darkness."
