After I read this selection of
Bryant's poetry I was compelled
to walk out into the world.

My insides glowed like back lit
stain glass.

I felt like I had just eaten
the best food, love induced
sustenance.

I felt like I had just walked
into the androgynous and
amplified quirks of an ageless
poet who recognizes, catalogues,
and celebrates each moment as
a poetic scenario.

I was inspired to slow down
and relish the savory details.

I was inspired by the NOW
Bryant memorializes in the life
of his poetics.
