Your work is always seemingly straightforward and yet always incredibly dense in meaning, emotion, intensity. Hemingway, I suppose. You're reading these unpretentious lines, but find something building, building over the course of the piece that just crescendos at the end.
What a simple, elegant, poignant arc. And repeating certain sentences, increases the impact and the meaning of the spaces between. Another triumph.
Thank you, Betsy! The constraint of “The time…” really helped filter out unnecessary words and experiences. Thank you for your constant support!!
Very self-mending. Love the imagery conveyed by hearing what's not said in the repitition.
thank you, Ron!
This is so good. Thank you.
Thank YOU!
