Life is elsewhere

'if a poem is to be a true poem, it must be read by somebody else besides the author; only then can it prove that it is not merely a disguised diary and that it is capable of living its own life, independent of the person who had written it.'

in the meantime:


lower case is presence...lower case gives you space to live...
lower case is the swish of the skirt


with apologies to Tom Leonard, from the case for lower case,
it seemed apt.
