Martin Elster at NVN
It was a pleasure to see Martin's poem The Great Wall of America in my Facebook feed this morning.

Congrats, Martin! The first time I read this poem, I thought of NVN. You tell it slant, even as you hit the topic head-on. Good one!

Very nice! I think I neglected to comment on the poem when posted, so I'm glad to put in a word here. I live outside McAllen, so it's quite topical for me.
Cheers,
John

Martin, this is great! I love the heroic couplets for this tragically unheroic topic--your parallel universe really comes alive with verbal energy & friends fowl or beastly. Congratulations!

Glad you enjoyed it. I’m grateful for the helpful comments and encouragement from my Eratosphere friends. And thanks to James Penha for publishing it.
