Dear Tim,
You've made me laugh again... So Burton's ghost can sleep, but I've no doubt your show has made some gentle sweep over plain and grain in your vast land...and I agree - poets could stand to be more media savvy.
Well, my partner and I had better make ready and shine the dogs and shampoo our shoes (or is that shine our shoes and shampoo our dogs?) if you dare to venture to my fair (but not vast) land of merry...
I'm afraid a certain Dr. Su (
not Mr. Wu) already's beaten you to the task of pinning back my "Dumbo" ears some thirty years ago!!!
Alas, perhaps, we'll talk and box (ears !) this summer at Sewanee??
Sweet Sunday dreams of Odysseus (and pigshit?) out there in Fargo, North Dakota. (No fair having a beautifully iambic city and state name!)
Cheers,
Cynthia
