Strawberry Fields Forever: Amie Whittemore’s “Nest of Matches”
(Kindel Media)

“Lilies/finch/flinches/nest/basil/hair/hat. I would swear before a jury that those are all legitimate off-rhymes, even if I were convicted of perjury for it. I wish that Shelley or Keats or Lorca or Miguel Hernández were alive so that I could pass this poem along to them.”

Timeless reading in a fleeting world.
