Editor's Notes
Editor's Notes
by Michael R. Burch
Eat, drink and be merry
(tomorrow, be contrary).
(***** and complain
in bad refrain,
but pleaseβnot till I'm on the plane.)
Write no poem before its time
(in your case, this means never).
Linger over every word
(by which, I mean forever).
By all means, read your verse aloud.
I'm sure you'll be a star
(and just as distant, when I'm gone);
your poems are beauteous (afar).
