Thanks John. I seem to recognise this name, a Spherian?

And a Friend of Fliss, though not so visible on the Sphere these days, I believe. He's a gifted poet, as you see, and his translation of Dante's Convivio with Cambridge is now the standard version.
I submitted to this interesting-looking review when you posted the link but have yet to hear back, alas!

Cheers,
John

That's a very nice poem, Phil. Very nice indeed.
Signature info:
If you don't like the black theme, it is easy to switch to a lighter color. Just ask me how.
If I don't critique your poem, it is probably because I don't understand it.
