“About Nothing”: An Early Spring Poem for the End of August

August 29, 2021 by Carolyn Martin Leave a Comment

It happens this way …

When Sarah Law, the editor of the UK-based Amethyst Review, accepted “About Nothing,” I was delighted. But when she told me she scheduled this early spring poem for August 30, I was amused. As an editor myself, I receive  many seasonal poems and must decide if they fit–– or not–– into the seasonal issues of Kosmos Quarterly. Being on the other side of the desk as a contributor may make me reconsider. If a poem is good, it’s good no matter what the season.

Enjoy reading and listening to “About Nothing.” It also appears in The Catalog of Small Contentments.
