I hadn't heard of Monkey's Shoulder before now. For a moment I read your poem and wondered where in Spokane they were butchering monkeys so you could eat them. A quick google search later and I'll have to see if I can find a bottle to try for myself.

That's been one of the weirder moments this week.
I'm glad you cleared that up, Mike! If you like whisky, it's a good one.
Dude, so close! Next time, coffee is on me.
Could have excursed a little south to see Old Woman, too! Have cookies with the coffee.
I love your use of “excursed,” Mary — gonna steal it at the next opportunity.
excursed = excused excursion?
Next time will be a more leisurely trip and I'll warn you in advance!
“By shores of Gitche Gumee , by the big sea waters”… your journey in a Hollow nest to rest ; the journey takes you to more places to love.
Longfellow and Lightfoot!
It would have been great to read the poetry that would have been generated from that meeting.
A beautiful thought -- thanks, Stan.
I like thinking this place exists.
A lovely place indeed.
"we sink into the innocence of sleep" Is brilliant! One of my favorite lines of the poem.
Thank you, Daniel
Amazing work, Jonathan. Keep it up. 👌
