It’s good to get some independent confirmation that the knitted hagfish is indeed a wonderful thing — that I’m not completely blinkered by lurve.

Bob! Good to hear from you again. I love “Palpable mizzle sifts/down”.

The poem rose, pink,
precise, intact,
meme’s light
membrane,

a prickly
headpiece
at first blush.

Palpable mizzle sifts
down, tho
the poem dies
defiled,

demeaned, unless
love is enough
for my stale brain.

— Bob BrueckL

The precipitating poem clearly deserved such an equally wonderful objet.
