Friends:
I think I'm posting more than I should.  But there aren't many of us "on duty"
this Saturday, and I'm eager to thank, for all of us, Margaret for her
introduction to Rebecca Patterson and the tantalizing teaser about her work,
and Jed for his urge to comparison with # 520.  Wow, what sensuality!  I had
never read it before, and it is so strong!  A final thought:  I grew up with a
series of different volumes of Selected Poems of ED.  I got my collected poems
only a week ago.  I would guess that one of the necessary guidelines of
editors of  selected poems is to please, to reinforce existing
predispositions.  What a pleasure, then, coming to this group, which takes on
everything and where participants urge (and teach) careful reading and
attention to intuition, and demonstrate repeatedly that there is no final
answer.

Such a delight.  Nity nite.
Louis
