New at Last Grotto: "Ode to Diogenes" by Jacob Friesenhahn

A playful, irreverent hymn to Diogenes of Sinope (c. 412–323 BCE), the founder of Cynicism who rejected social conventions and lived in a barrel. The poem captures the philosopher's radical simplicity and shamelessness.

A hymn to Diogenes, who wanted from the world only sunlight and honesty. Published here for the first time.

From Jacob Friesenhahn's collection The Prayer of the Mantis (Kelsay Books, 2025).
