All Hail Caitlin Clark! — never better in defeating the big bad South Carolinians last night. One more to go!

Here she is with Coach Bluder.

Owl Chatter is on the move today. Heading down to Philly for a nice event with some friends. Not sure we can write later.

But here’s the poem of the day from the Poetry Foundation.

It’s by Denise Levertov, and it’s called The Secret.

Two girls discover
the secret of life
in a sudden line of
poetry.

I who don’t know the
secret wrote
the line. They
told me

(through a third person)
they had found it
but not what it was
not even

what line it was. No doubt
by now, more than a week
later, they have forgotten
the secret,

the line, the name of
the poem. I love them
for finding what
I can’t find,

and for loving me
for the line I wrote,
and for forgetting it
so that

a thousand times, till death
finds them, they may
discover it again, in other
lines

in other
happenings. And for
wanting to know it,
for

assuming there is
such a secret, yes,
for that
most of all.
