I Would Have Loved To Tell You

Or play musical grenades fast! I enjoyed reading your writing and hope you entered some into the Anthology. I’m sure the two I commented on would have made it. Quite lovely! Rather

Exceptional writing, which (free of embellishments) provokes much reflection that resonates from your central metaphor ("..words are grenades"). Congratulations! Brian
