Absolutely beautiful. Especially for me this week. My brother died Tuesday night. Heart attack, only 57 years old. Thank for you for this gorgeous poem!

There's always such exquisitely detailed sound working in your poems. And so much significance. We are becoming the tomb that waits.

Reading it through once, this might be my favorite in a long line of favorites. I will take a breath and read it again.

Holy Saturday always feels forgotten to me somehow, cut off from Good Friday and Easter. You've re-membered it brilliantly.
