OK got here right away this time. Minimus, this is a maximus poem! Mar loves the story and the word play. Me too. I am taken by its spareness, its bareness, its pathos. Thanks Warrent
Right! Instead of Maximus (Charles Olson's ongoing project tho he's dead these many years) I am Minimus (f'real) , autobiographical account(s) with very few discounts. Olson was a master wordster and his shapely tongue and mind spake and thus poetry in a very American tongue.
