ps- John, congrats on the new makar. I saw her live in Vienna a few years ago, she was with David Greenslade and others. Solid choice. I even have a book of hers, I probably must have bought it at the British Council sponsored event, True Confessions & New Cliches.
A bit beyond haiku's traditional boundaries, but beautiful in its way. It's important to go beyond now and then.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Bill.

Sorry, I should have explained - I mean Liz Lochhead the new poet laureate north of the border - her title is makar - at least in the press.
