Ditto to what Allen said, Bob.

Thank you, everyone.

Special thanks to Martin Rocek, who introduced me to the Leo Strauss poem/song. While I like to think I translated it well, I'm sure that the appeal of the wonderful Strauss poem itself played a large role in my winning. (Here is some background on the poem). Also thanks to Julie for encouraging me to enter this year.

Congratulations! That's great news.

Is the poem going to be up anywhere it can be read?

Matt, it will appear in the Evansville Review, but not until next year. The journal only comes out annually. I'm not really clear on whether I can share it online without ticking them off, but I'd be happy to share it privately with anyone who asks by private message.
