Thank goodness for the heart, especially with so many constantly flat tires–I like the voice, and the voice of Lopez in "The Ghosts of My Past Are in Disrepair," there seems to be a plethora of despairing voices out there too–reminds me a little of Emily Dickinson and some of her more conversational poems. I'm filled up, thanks Tabatha, and many Happy Returns of the Day to Dash!Michelle Koganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02575814872372518994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-23828057483636454262021-05-08T07:41:04.618-04:002021-05-08T07:41:04.618-04:00I think Hope’s tire has been a long time flat. Man...I think Hope’s tire has been a long time flat. Many steady feet are now walking to where Hope wants to go. Love that poem! I read Lopez’s message to the devil following his ancestor poem. Indeed, his voice is necessary, like that of all poets, perhaps a sobrequet for prophets. Donna taught me the new word. Wonderful word for nickname!Joyce Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02905709719444916488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-3405670399115765102021-05-07T19:56:48.265-04:002021-05-07T19:56:48.265-04:00Great choices.

These were new poets to me. I liked reading the rest of Lopez's deep poem. <br /><br />And that first image of hope getting a flat tire and the stubborn heart walking is amazing. I'm taking that with me today!<br /><br />All the best on your son's birthday celebration this weekend.
