the text would have to be that of "my life" by Lyn Hejinian
i have been reading it all weekend and like Plath's Ariel
it is so deep and sharp that one longs to build a chapel and to read it aloud
from behind an altar without useless dogmatic symbolism
forever with out food or drink till that long sleep death
truly stunning i regret taking so long to obtain it
and I'm sure it will be in my breast pocket for many years to come
tattered and worn and loved like the synthetic fur rubbed off your favorite stuffed animal from a distant childhood
