    You will hands down be my favorite poet of this lifetime and I suspect all of my lifetimes… you are so beautiful in love, look at you glow and illuminate… I wish you peace… blessed be… peace…

    You and Meg are the love story of my dreams. Pure companionship, trust like all and no secrets, awe aliveness and poetic ferocity. It’s hard to keep taking the needle off the envy album-but even more than that: just the knowing that this love exists… is a gift. May the love I bring to this world be such a wild adventure.

    I don't know how many people feel this but, I swear, your love reaches me. I'm cupped by infinity.

    Omg, you make me believe that love IS poetry. And that I must trust that. ... and seek that... and be that.

    The part about adverbs is even funnier having taken Megan's Poems That Don't Suck class! We appreciate how beautifully you break rules to honestly reveal true feelings.

    Oh Andrea, is it the human in me, or the trained nurse in me that felt a need to siren my vehicle and head straight to where you were STAT, …to brace your collapse into this whole expanse??…Sending all my positive vibes ( including gratitude pillows for you to land on after your flight detail), when you get there….Knowing you likely wouldn’t have settled for less than wholly feeling the raw of what you just released in pure gold wisdom to all of us out here. I am so grateful for and to you, Andrea. You give so much of yourself to all of us…know it’s felt so very deep. ❤❤

I feel forever blessed to exist in the same universe and timeline as you. I know you must hear this all the time but your poetry has kept me going and helped me hold on to a thread of hope in the darkest of times. 💕

    the line about your minivan and her hitting on every curb reminds me of the show in Orlando back in October of 2019, where she ran over the cone when going to park it down the block from the venue. this poem makes me so happy, brings me so much joy. though I imagine not nearly as much as she brings to you, and you her, on a regular basis.
