Nice cup of coffee lol
Watch out for the gallows, Tokyo Rose. They’ll try to get you.
16 March, 2017 at 9:53 am #1026471How odd you both like the same poet, with there being so few people posting on these boards.
Are you 2 friends or is there perhaps more to this?
16 March, 2017 at 9:58 am #1026472I just googled it.
I like Wallace Stevens’s poetry – very much. His prose – where this comes from – is interesting to me only insofar as it gives us clues to his poetry. As he said in The Necessary Angel, he is not attempting any systematic argument, merely trying to point to truth in a different way. Which is what his poetry does.
oooo, isn’t St Alfie profound!
Now when I quote writers, I do try to acknowledge the writer. Otherwise people will think it be me writing it.
The crimes, follies and misfortunes of mankind…

16 March, 2017 at 9:59 am #1026474I don’t want this to sound like some sort of Conspiracy theory, but there does seem to be more than what meets the eye, here.
16 March, 2017 at 10:00 am #1026475I’d be honoured to be his friend as we share the same taste in poetry, but he sees me as a neanderthal love rival, and he isn’t feeling the Divine and most Gracious Love, yet. Do you feel it Rose?
16 March, 2017 at 10:01 am #1026476And I lived in Archway, at almost certainly the same time as St Alfie.
hahahaha
No wonder Blossom was always accusing me of being Alfie.
Well, I’ll leave it for Alfie to answer. He seems busy at the moment.
I’m about to get busy too, so won’t check in till later.
Hmmm..we’re both busy at the same time. Food for thought.

16 March, 2017 at 10:07 am #1026478I know a good online therapist for that, very reasonable rates !
16 March, 2017 at 10:08 am #1026479You Laine in disguise, Tokyo Rose?
Just noticed St Alfie’s response.
Have you read Helen Vendler’s books on Stevens?
no, not a love rival at all. I steer clear of that, have done for many years.
But I do like debate and I like the fun in wordplay here.
Was hoping Mooosey might be fun, but who knows?
Have to log off now, really, or I’ll be late.
