Daniel, I just finished reading APPLE for the third time. Each reading has brought the poem into closer focus but I will need a longer acquaintance with it before I can write anything cogent in response. But I love the language of the poem! And the image of the Angel - and the words he speaks - is remarkable. This is truly a visionary poem and will demand a close reading. But I can already sense it will reward the effort. More later.
