15000 people is a lot to hit a page of poems,even if they thought it something else,
and finding this, were somewhat disappointed.
Gratifying, though, to think that anyone
would stop and read words from the heart
of someone that they do not know,
or think they do, and really don't at all,
or, in the case of very few, they do,
but (most surprising thing of all)
still love the poet and are patient
and encouraging, enthused about
her litany of life and love and hope.
