Yep, a collage to offer the very best wishes and good fortune to poets here and everywhere. Good Luck all. If the world sings annoyingly, stare it down. Write more.
Four calling birds in a bare tree. Apologies for crassly commercializing your work, Sarah-Jane, but I’d buy a box of these to send to friends. Wishing you a songful and lucrative holiday season!

I agree with Carl completely. "Four calling birds in a bare tree" is brilliant deflection.
I'd love to buy a box or two too.
I love the flecks of white. They might or might not be snow or stars or flakes of fluttering...
I love the neither gray nor green
I can see four ambiguously male birds in a non-binary world being simultaneously silently mothered and bickering over nothing of importance — But that's just a throw-away thought.
I love the semi-surrealness of it. It walks a line.
(It's obvious: I love.)
"Don't think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art." ― Andy Warhol
Gorgeous, Sarah-Jane. The world does not deserve you.
