Default "Herod" in The New Criterion

A poem I workshopped here a while back appeared in The New Criterion today: https://www.newcriterion.com/issues/...birthday-herod

My thanks to everyone who helped me polish it.

Best,

Aaron

Thanks, Mike. You are the twitter master. You have inspired me to figure out what to do with it.

Good morning Aaron,

Thank you for that fine poem. It reminds me of this remarkable Klimt painting, which they call Judith with Holofernes for reasons I do not fathom:

Cheers,
John

Great poem, Aaron. Beautifully done. And I have your new books on my Amazon wish list, so it won't be long now.... Congratulations on all!

Thank you, John. That Klimt painting is great. It is indeed titled: "Judith II (Salome)." What?
