In fact most social gatherings - I and my son are all I need - or myself...I feel happiest alone; or with my son. <BR/><BR/>Woman and (as I am not a homo or a queer) (I may be sublimating something here though!! But I think I am pretty hetero as they call it in the trade...but I avoid women now also - they attract me a lot -but not as much as when I was say 20 to 30 etc)))) but I avoid...((getting too old in any case for all that nonsense)) I avoid men also... I mean...in any case Frank has more or less declined... <BR/><BR/>I worry about Jack Ross though...<BR/><BR/>Just joking Jack (or am I he is a strange bastard) - actually Jack is binging out a new book that is being touted to set the world on fire (it will checkmate all other literary efforts or works throughout the world - Shakespeare, B. S. Jonson Charles Bernstein, Michelle Leggott, Joyce and Taylor - will all have to move over I believe...)...it is the book to end all books I am told...he stole all his ideas for in from me!! Oh well - it IS the Postmodern-Palimsestic-Romantic Age!!! <BR/><BR/>And new beasts slouch toward Bethleham for the 200 millionth time to be psychically and cyber-spiritually-spirally reconstituted, reconstituted, reconstituted...<BR/><BR/>Leggott is still at A.U. she writes well (at least as wall as Masefield) and is now the Poet Laureate...<BR/><BR/>Hang in there tertius!!Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10272507198753290435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19744635.post-84113398639300842402008-05-18T21:05:00.000+12:002008-05-18T21:05:00.000+12:00I know the fellow you mean - I didn't know he ran ...I know the fellow you mean - I didn't know he ran for Parliament - I felt sorry for that fellow. Dave shoudlrecall - i heis downin theTames area -I might be able to get into conatct with him.<BR/><BR/>Yes that bloke did a minor "thesis" that was basically that Creeley was language poet...hmm ...I met Creeley when he came here about 1995. His lectures were excellent also. I liked him a lot..he was trying to help me on something -I could sense he was a very compassionate man - he died few years ago - but that fellow -I remember him... I was thinking of him also the other day...Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10272507198753290435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19744635.post-31834857204750298612008-05-18T00:33:00.000+12:002008-05-18T00:33:00.000+12:00Recall some sleazy situations as the driver for th...Recall some sleazy situations as the driver for the master of disaster Frank.
