I enjoyed listening in from the shadows. God bless all who search for the healing words.

In regard to Catholic poets, you need also to look at Anthony Esolen. He has translated Dante, Augustine’s confessions, and has written his own book of poetry called The Hundredfold: Songs for the Lord. He and his wife Debra have a substack channel called Word and Song. He is a great advocate for poetry. His book in the beginning was the word, an annotated reading of the prologue of John is a testament to that.
