Sheldon
SWIFT 1985 (Bury)
This is what I don’t quite get.
It sounds like I could send you a poem and it would be fine no matter what I said.
Even though there is no difference between my poem and my poem.
So it must be received…
how..?
A ponder for me.
But no longer the knives,
or the clawing at dark
without death, died, or dead.
A moment.
Wine?
Bread?
