I really enjoyed reading prisoners poem and would like an audience with you, I am a enduring freedom vet of 20 years poetry is what I like to write as well as read. Please contact me if that is possible, thank you Mr. Komunyakaa.

Just came across the poem Blessing the Animals. It's wonderful: funny and haunting, too. Thank you, Mr. Komunyakaa.

I heard Chris Abani recite ODE TO DRUM, it was just the transformation i needed as a writer.
