Fantastic! I am really enjoying and benefitting from these podcasts of yours. I had sort of expected that there might be somewhat meandering messages with recited poems a couple times a month, but now I am grasping the very different intention you have for this effort. It's really pretty remarkable the level of forethought and planning and choreographing you have put into this enterprise. Your scholarship is astounding, one reference after another introduced in a timely way. I hope a lot of this serves double duty as a future book, since you have one developing here that would be a gift and would fill a needed spot in the articulation of the Wayfaring Poet Path you are elucidating. "Wine jar filling cups without me"!!! How great is that?! Also, I am deeply honored to hear my name mentioned in the company of others I look up to as mothers and fathers of the art. Thank you. It is a pleasure to walk with you on this beautiful path, and I look forward to hearing more as you evoke the qualities and mysteries of this Way itself.
