Today our free newsletter readers received a poem by Jane Greer, who passed away on July 22 of this year. We are honored to have published one of her final poems, and to know that the issue reached her and brought her joy.

Follow Chris’s lead!
Lots of good energy @NimrodJournal thanks to editor @BorisDralyuk. 🌞 I just subscribed. 🌞
I am deeply saddened by the news of Jane’s death. I never met her, but she was a boisterous, provocative, funny online penpal, and, most importantly, a poet of rare lyric grace. It was an honor to publish the poem below earlier this summer.
Some lit journals pay nothing. Today, appreciatively, I received a modest check from @utulsa for this poem, which appeared in @NimrodJournal last month. Editor-in-chief @BorisDralyuk and his excellent young staff put out a first-class journal that respects the folks it publishes.
A beautiful poem by @famous_letter in @NimrodJournal . And a lesson in creative allusivity. Thank you. This got me. "He was full of sleep and not enough."
