I do love it so much, though i probably have truly taken in 20-30 lines in three years. not only do i move very slowly on shaky ground, but i have many things less wonderful than tender buttons in my life. But i am moved to think this is not the pleasant cup of coffee i might have at either nice coffee shop or even in my cozy wingback with its somewhat distressed heavy wooden end table. this seems to me to be more of a truck stop in the middle of the night on a not too busy road sort of coffee. the coffee, the table, the whole set up rather dirty and shabby. you know, more than double could also mean past 11, as in am, late for morning coffee, or like in my case so long ago, after 11 pm drinking to stay awake and keep my rig between the ditches until sunrise. of course with any poet, and especially GS, i could be completely wrong, but she is amazing fun! Thank you for this spot of Stein on my journey!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03376893876479172962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53841570921557123.post-12711817390038963222013-10-14T19:18:02.024-04:002013-10-14T19:18:02.024-04:00What an honour it is to be included here!
