My poem “Letters” is in the latest issue of Ship of Fools. Moreover, the editor, Jack Hart, wrote a one-page review of “Crowned”, which appears at the end of the issue. I particularly appreciated his comment that “Ms. Lee uses a very clear, direct, and simple diction nearly free of idiom or verbal mannerism, so that the language is on one hand clear and readable, and on the other dignified and reserved. It works very well for the author’s purposes.” I am aware that many of the poems border on prose, and yet in my mind they are not prose, partly because they are more condensed and partly because I attempt to make them sound well (I may not succeed). It is is a relief to know this worked for Mr. Hart. N.B. I am grateful to Mr. Hart not only for his review, but for publishing my poetry and encouraging me for twelve years.
