Poetry Daily & a marvelous myth

[ankh_hpl]

Today's offering from Poetry Daily  consists of two poems by Agha Shahid Ali.  The first of these, "The Youngest of the Graeae," is one of the loveliest mythological poems I've read in some time.  Definitely of interest to all fans of speculative verse who enjoy this aspect of the fantastic!

(If you aren't sure what or who the Graeae are or were -- and I wasn't -- there is a helpful note with the poem.)
