Thursday, August 29, 2002. Nice) Reta Carden from Mayville NY has sent the copy of H'm. She is nice because she was so patient while UK banks worked out how to send a few dollars to NY. And even more patient while PayPal tried to work out whether it could possibly allow you to open PayPal from a Thai ISP! Was the UK edition not in gray boards? Frequencies and LOS are common books. While on this- the other book I have never seen is the Japanese edition of SATYT. RS never had a copy. You say the word.

Let me begin. With her of the immaculate brow. My wife; she loves me. I know how. My mother gave me the breast's milk. Generously, but grew mean after,. Envying me my detached laughter. My father was a passionate man,. Wrecked after leaving the sea. In her love's shallows. He grieves in me. He is young yet;. The bo...

Tuesday, December 24, 2002. This is the wrong Christmas. In the right place: mistletoe. Water there is no kissing. Under; the soused holly. Of the wrack, and birds coming. To the bird-table with. No red on their breast. All. Night it has snowed. Foam on the splintering. Beaches, but the dawn-. Wind carries it away, load. After load, and look,. The sand at the year's. Solstice is young flesh. On a green crib, product. Of an immacukate conception. Pre 1992 Publications: MacMillan and Hart Davis.

Tuesday, April 22, 2003. Easter. I approach. The years' empty tomb. What has time done with. Is the news worth. Little. A thin, cold wind. Blows from beyond the abysm. That I gawp into. But supposing. There were bones; the darkness. Illuminated like a museum? In glass cases I have. Peered at the brittle bundles,. But here, true to my name,. I have nothing to hold on. To, an absence so much richer. Than a presence, offering. Instead of the skull's. Leer an impaled possibility.

Friday, March 28, 2003. 29 March 1913-29 March 2000. He grew up into an emptiness. He was on terms with. The duplicity. Of language that could name. What was not there was accepted. By him. He was content, remembering. The unseen writing of Christ. On the ground, to interpret. It in its own way. Adultery. Of the flesh has the divine. Pardon. It is the mind. Catching itself in the act. Of unfaithfulness that must cast no stone. Pre 1992 Publications: MacMillan and Hart Davis.
