"Walking through the Frick with Bruce" has a nice ring to it. I will write the poem--if only for your eyes--and post it to WHOF where poems are needed (I have been slacking, for sure, on this moment of process). the thing I wish I cld be more faithful to above are all of Bruce's insights about the art at the Frick. it was really quite wonderful and I'm not doing justice to it. not to mention the stories he was telling at breakfast before hand, about his experiences as a chaplain, and of Philip Whalen. this amazing story about a Whalen's dream life. Bruce's live speech/conversation enfolds petrushka doll-like, not unlike the narrative digressions of his stories. really quite wonderful to listen to! gosh Bhanu, I wish I cld figure out how to incorporate the rhythms of Wild Horses of Fire here, which has always been something of an open notebook for me. “Walking through the Frick with Bruce” has a nice ring to it.

Thom, I love in your other/regular/trenchant blog [ "http://whof.blogspot.com/" ] when you interdict (sp?) a sequence of prose posts with your own poems. Is it possible to dare you to write a poem with the title I have extracted, in a fibrous sense, from your post above: in a post? And also would love to hear more about: "How to bring bodies together?" The question of the attractant. “Walking through the Frick with Bruce”: is like the title of something.

I wish I could have gotten into the city for the weekend. Funny, I finally got a chance to read "The Truth About Ted" just a few weeks ago. It was the copy that Boone sent Robert Duncan!
