DPF / Kumin

For writing as salvation, from Nurture. I saw Maxine Kumin speak at the Key West Literary Seminar in January of 2010 (kwls.org). She had such a peaceful spirit and calming manner.

from On Being Asked to Write a Poem in Memory of Anne Sexton / by Maxine Kumin (1925-2014)

The elk discards his antlers every spring.
They rebud, they grow, they are growing

an inch a day to form a rococo rack
