I watched the video of your reciting the poem - it was nothing short of stunning, truly..I almost began crying [not with sadness, but because you SO got it, as it were, so wondrously articulated it [regarding my sensibility anyway...]. There was a literal rush all through my body that almost emerged from beneath my lids. That poem has been - O, how can I say?
