You'll find it in the sidebar under the title "After-Effects of Fire - A Sestina".Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290283101378474845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2639339699258439249.post-27711862957164617272011-07-22T16:23:00.436-04:002011-07-22T16:23:00.436-04:00This hot of the presses, yes?

You beautifully handle narrative here, Maureen-- a great way to present The Brigadier ala interview-- did you mean that gives in talking about his shirt? <br /><br />Wanted to mention you use the word braids/upbraids numerous times-- for emphasis, perhaps-- what a compelling painting and you extract a story from it-- thanks for participating! xxxxjJenne' R.
