ain't no jack-in-the-pulpit, pussy-toes, posey, poesy, poet (ry) writer but red poinsettia knocked silly by it: knotweed! Clubbed senseless where I growed!
Poetry that is.

Beyond the Beyond, sometime in the latter future, maybe billions of trillions of years, but who’s counting, by what measure, from now: the language and those who speak/hear it may be gone but the experience of joining Creation will remain. Or mainly what tomorrow will be, of equal measure for me—the many years implied—I’ll be for another what I imply Heaven; that is. Or Whatever will be—will be—of us: two people becoming one and then and then and…

Annie my beloved baby wooly mammoth and I will be apart for the first substantial time beginning tomorrow Randy’s Birth Date. Her retching awakened me briefly, fell back to sleep, then thought of her as so beloved and the opening; her loving me then shot from bed and here I am.

At the moment I am reading Nadine Gordimer's Get A Life. The library stack also includes Aiding and Abetting, Muriel Spark; Being Dead, Jim Crace; Staring at the Sun, Julian Barnes. I'm also in the midst of the "new" translation (Lydia Davis) of Proust's Swann's Way, alas, a sure-fire soporific. The non-fiction choice is Ben Ratliff's Coltrane: The Story of a Sound, eagerly anticipated. And in the Classics, when I need a shot after or in-between these other novels, are good, re-read stand-bys A Severed Head, by the dearly, much-missed, late Iris Murdoch, and my delight, no matter how many times re-read, Sense and Sensibility. Generally I read Austen every three to five years. However, I just finished Emma and I'm craving more.
