Alternately, Max Garland makes me want to write my brains out or stop writing completely. He's that great. He judged the recent Wisconsin Writers Association Jade Ring contest and I can't wait for his feedback on the poems I submitted.
This poem of his from "The Word We Used For It" reminded me of the hollyhocks I recently saw driving in the neighborhood. A half dozen hollyhocks rose from concrete to ring a signpost in front of a business whose owners lost a child this year. Ghostly beauty.
