@the_shb Indeed, Sarah. Her scholarship on poetry opened it to readers and always proceeded from love. Farewell to her, but yes let's keep reading her and the poets whose work she divined.

@nathanael_o @adalimon Brilliant to see, Nathanael. Bring on the Australian poet laureateship. Then we may begin to see the same kind of enthusiasm and attendances here. Helps that she writes such smart and kind and humane, lyric poems.

@Audrey_Molloy @TheGalleryPress @PittStPoetry Go, Audrey. x

@Audrey_Molloy Brilliant new, Audrey.

@damen_o Nice work, Damen. Well done, you. Proud of you.
