An absolute joy. Their form reminds me of Ted Hughe’s ‘Crow’ but its bright twin. There is a purity, ingenuity, the simplicity of the crumbs, which articulate & represent so much. Just wonderful.
Thank you so much, Daniel! I appreciate your thoughts on the chapbook, and moved especially that they brought joy, which is hard to come by – much easier to sing the blues, no? I hope you’re well! Abrazos, Jose
