Let's make this birthday one to remember.

94 years old (Born on October 24, 1930)

Happy Birthday, Elaine Feinstein! May your day be filled with more joy than a poet discovering the perfect metaphor. Your brilliant works like "Cities" and "The Survivors" continue to captivate readers worldwide—proving once again that poetry ages far better than birthday cake.

Your literary journey has been nothing short of inspiring; blending Objectivist clarity with Black Mountain boldness, you've crafted timeless narratives we cherish deeply. Here's hoping this year brings you as much delight as translating an elusive stanza or penning another unforgettable novel. Cheers to many more years celebrating life's poetic absurdities—and fewer moments wrestling writer's block!
