There is deep truth found there.<br /><br />Also, that poem forms a true context for your poem which does not read the same without it, because I tried and had no idea how to find what I knew was there. Joy taught you to write this poem and then taught me to read it.<br /><br />Now what were several images in several verses unite inside the task of orienting toward the next, the fifth world.<br /><br />Now your poem sings!christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04201537517464996231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25694715.post-87226394495050249082010-10-08T15:46:08.155-07:002010-10-08T15:46:08.155-07:00A fine write with an especially killer close.
