Love of words can make a poem dance, but too many of the writers whose books I edit seem overly self-conscious, so in love with their words or phrasing that this reader gags. Something to watch out for in my own non-poetical craftings.

If reactions to this piece are any guide, it seems a fair percentage of people feel the same way.

Thanks for your comment!
