written for Julie Curtis
I still owe Julie a poem about a sandwich from January. This might seem an odd place to state this, but my life has only as yet allowed me snatched opportunities to get to know her, and of all the people featured here she is the person I’ve not nearly interacted with enough as yet.
Julie’s skills and history are absolutely something I’d like to know more about. She’s provided me with a really significant nudge in terms of direction and ideas since we met. Of everything that has transpired this year, it is her generosity that I am grateful for most.
… and this is a poem I have to copy and paste as an image because it is a SHAPE POEM and I am not done with THOSE either as time goes on…
This sandwich
