I'd read a fair bit of his poetry in the past and felt I was connected
to it in some way. It was more than just liking or loving; it was what I'd always
dreamed of writing. I could never do stuff like that; but, in having his poems to
steal from, mine have gotten a bit better. I love his stuff because it deals with
time, paradox, what writing does to itself, etc. Mathematical magician.
I found this one-volume collection that he selected himself a year or two ago
at a used book store ($2)
, but I stacked it next to my computer unread. THANKYOU for reminding me of him. Will scramble through the pile and find
it. My passion awakes...

P.S. And yes, I truly love this site and the generous benefactors who've made
it possible.
