Grew up on Spock and company. I like your vision of a Vulcan consumed by the flames of his own hidden passion for science and the worlds beyond our mostly limited imagination. M.True
...he shot right out of the lips of lava--
lovingly unmoved by danger
without the hint of passion in his posession
willing for dispersal, disappearance--
nondesperate, undespairing
conciderate, decided, decidido
desiderata...
I love how you play with words. So good to read your wiley writes again. --Charlie
Don't know if we will live in a world like that, though to a scientist we are already in it. You capture the bold with the beautiful in the nuance of your thoughts.
Though I'm not a Trekker, I did love the series very much. Spock was a very unique character inside the very unique world. The world could learn from him. Great wordsmithing here, Kate.

Oh, Kate, as a bona fide Trekker, I have to love this piece. However, as a poet, I truly am enchanted by some of your turns of phrase, such as "consumed by the constant tiol of dismantling final frontiers." Now, that I can relate to from my own work, so it was fascinating to read and think about. Your ending is the best, too, "hauling in his cosmic catch." Just lovely! Keep up the great work!
Welcome!
The poems in this beautifully bound book are a result of over twenty years of observations. Observations of the world around us and on the telecommunications network. All of the hate, love, heroism, disasters, and those who help.

If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.

Yes, Spock from another planet seemed to be filled with earthly wisdom. Now isn't that strange?
