"The diversion of baiting an author has the sanction of all ages and nations, and is more lawful than the sport of teasing other animals, because, for the most part, he comes voluntarily to the stake, furnished, as he imagines, by the patron powers of literature, with resistless weapons, and impenetrable armour, with the mail of the boar of Erymanth, and the paws of the lion of Nemea." --The Rambler, 176.
Notes from the Edge Conference.
fall into spring may go
fleeing with the goats
gray boards weathering
thaumaturge on the run
fall into spring must pass
pillar here pillar there
where cars are burning
gray boards weathering
fall into spring will move
goldengrove unleaving
learning the scuba breath
thaumaturge on the run
"Each
partition travelled
by graysquadrons."
--Joris's Celan
