Commentary

“Unsaid” That’s the word my little poet brain wants to supply. And I struggle with the blank, the silence. How about you?

It’s no coincidence that this poem came to mind after I spent time with some exceptionally bright AND wise people.

Did this little poem break a sacred rule of poetry? The ghosts of Emily Dickinson and E. E. Cummings are here saying, “It’s okay, Brad. It’s okay.”
