I’m late in posting this because I had some family issues come up, but I am pleased to announce that my review of Who’s to Say What’s Home by Kim Calder was accepted for electronic publication by Rattle. I very much like the poetry they publish, and I feel honored to have the opportunity to make a small contribution to the magazine. The review is here.

The Death of Allegory by Billy Collins

The Lowest Place

Give me the lowest place: not that I dare
Ask for that lowest place, but Thou hast died
That I might live and share
Thy glory by Thy side.

Give me the lowest place: or if for me
That lowest place too high, make one more low
Where I may sit and see
My God and love Thee so.

—Christina Rossetti (1830-1894)
