I am so, so sorry to hear about Amir. He had a beautiful spirit. I searched for the poem Shoshana wanted (“The Last Piece of Underwear“). Amir read it at the Celebration of the Arts, and at the time Parallax did not have a real magazine. Much to my surprise, I found the poem, anyway.
The poem typifies Amir’s glorious, childlike sense of fun. I suspect he never lost that, and the world will be diminished by his loss. So sorry to reconnect with you in this way. You and all of Amir’s friends must be going through a tough time.
