Poem's Origin Story and Poetry Lovers

Chloe Yelena-Miller hosts a Substack series of postings called, "Poem's Origin Story." In June, 2026 she featured the story behind Larew's poem, Magic, and included his description of a collaboration with Eric Epstein who translated the poem into American Sign Language. Thanks to Chloe and to Eric for the magic.
