Years later, I imagined my mother was a mystic,
that her fever dreams that summer were whispering deeper truths,
that the mechanical thump of her heart was a secret numerology.

Lanterns by Doug Ramspeck - Rattle: Poetry
The summer we placed my mother in the psychiatric hospital,
the July sunlight spray-painted itself as glare along the building’s walls
as we drove away.

Not prizes, not awards, not traded favours. Not sales figures (22 books over the course of three readings last week if you're asking!), but people, individuals who engage. Readers readers, readers. They're all that matter.
