Love those haikus Matt, especially the first one. It’s resonating this morning.

Just wanted to say that I'm half-way through the poetry anthology and have already found several poems that I loved. Thank you so much for creating it.

I love the haiku‘s, Matthew. Thank you. And the term “brain rot” is my 12-year-old‘s current favorite word.

My husband is just barely on the other side of his transition from army to civilian life and it's a big adjustment for both of us. Looking forward to reading Sam Alaimo's piece!

I love the Haiku you've shared Matthew, and as always with this round-up of recommended reading you've given much food for thought, I loved Petya Grady's posts - thank you! 🙏🏼
