a degree in seeing

Originally posted by insteps: I'm trying to decide if this poem is about you or them. Another nice interpretation. This would be an interesting challenge if Don agreed. Post one of Don's poems, his choice, from the book or not and we take a photograph inspired by the poem.

of course, I agree, as long as we all promise to ignore the people who ask how they can see the poems without buying the book....

poetry is a neglected art form. most people are annoyed at the poet for not getting to the point.

in fact, the only thing to be said for poetry is that it can be returned to and be different every time.

the best thing you can do to a poem is steal it and carve it up and sing it out again.

thank you for that.

the poems call you hero.
