Thanks. I like 42opus a lot.
A sharp site. It's just mean how poets have so many decent venues in which to compete. I have to say we're much lazier in developing means of distribution/publication and far less supportive of one another on the fiction side. Dammit.
There are many things I like about the poems you have there, but I'm only going to note one thing: the plural "supernovae" in "Eulogy." I have a fondness for words that look like typos.
