It was crowded, a lurching ride and yet your poetry maintained its lucidity and integrity through this strangest of readings. I went to VPublic Library and the kindle store, even Kobo and no they didn't have your work. Can you please make it possible for those of us who suffer under Chapters brutal pricing system, to gain a lawful copy by either through a request by your agent to libraries to have a stock, or atleast an e-pub edition. Thanks Hi,
