I am uncomfortable with talking of poetry as a priestly profession, because I have little use for organized religions and priestly hierarchies. They have demoralized, persecuted, so many, including women, gays, non-believers.

I’m talking about the injustice, the outrage, of human trafficking, which must be called by its true name - modern slavery.
