Postcard Poems

Just received a couple of chapbooks (both "Postcard Poems") from Cassie Lewis, part of the inspiration for the postcard series I have been posting here the past couple of weeks. I left the selection of books up to her, and she sent a poetic correspondence between Tim Yu and her, and another one between Stephanie Young and her.

I opened the collection with Tim Yu at random, and found this:
1/19

Do you ever have William Blake days?
I do. They start amiably enough —
coffee, toast — and lead
into a forest thick and lush as childhood.
