I saw in the news that a young boy, a fan of Manchester United football club, wrote to the Liverpool's manager pleading with him to stop his team winning to give the club he supported a chance.
I am tempted to make a similar plea and ask...

Posted on Thu, 20 Feb 2020

Rachel, this must be the apotheosis of your poetry; it can't be surpassed, surely. But, having followed your work closely, I'm certain you are going to prove me wrong. Not only is your use of the language exquisite, your knowledge of Greek...
