Rusty enso



"Who says my poems are poems?
My poems are not poems.
After you know my poems are not poems,
Then we can begin to discuss poetry!"

From one of my favorite Great Fools, Ryokan

A poem is a poem is a poem. Vaiation on a Gertrude Stein theme.

Thanks for the link to the site on hermits and solitude! I forget that I am a hermit.

I feel so much better when I remember, and then my life feels whole again.

This is wonderful. Life has swallowed me up for weeks it seems--but I finally made it back to your site and found a wealth of delight. Thank you

I saw the great, rust blistered side of a freight car yesterday -- slowly being pulled west out of Chicago.

Just thought I'd warn you --- so you'll be ready when it finally gets to Texas.
