One of his poems which has been a "key to our being" for my own life is his "Investigation" which ends, "Wouldn't anything / cry like that, / pierced to the heart?" Thank you for drawing attention to him, Diane. The more people who read his fine work, the better for poetry and poets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-829168697372726752.post-62748622497779572402010-08-23T14:52:34.599-04:002010-08-23T14:52:34.599-04:00I thought I looked pretty tall there.
