The Voice Unseen by Bert H. Hoff.
      (This poem is inspired by Robert Bly's "A Third Body," from his book Sleepers Joining Hands. I am deeply grateful to Robert, for helping me find my own voice and speaking my truth. His poem has been a centerpiece for me, in talking about men, women and relationships.)

An Unfinished Poem... by Bert H. Hoff. When Bert delivered "Men's Movement to Earth" as the report from the M.E.N. Magazine editor to the Seattle M.E.N. Board, conflict and chaos broke out at the meeting. This humorous poem attempts to make sense of that experience. This poem and "Men's Movement to Earth" are in Bert's poetry book Clarity, available from MenWeb.
