bernadette a mainstay, this gorgeous nodder at ulysses & so forth - the 24hr, set-in-a-day type work - without ever feeling like it Needs them to exist. content is heartful, love for friends by large & swelling volumes, feminist dailiness & oddness of trivial experience. But light too & more ontological things happening in unpretentious ways . a good required piece, after sonnets.

I know the rest of the night will be as devoted to work as love as I'm now resting in this expensive sentence and in the end I'll spend it fast writing to you anyway, addressing you and a solution or night beginning like a letter, just a few words more freely seeing everything more clearly than the rest of life and love tends to be like windows facing mostly south but surrounding us, I'm thinking of you.

Falling down is a transition I offer you, I have a feeling I want to be adored, is poetry a luxury, I won't defend it, I'll change my tone of voice to share the rest but I won't end it.
