Do you ever finish a book of poems? No.
Will I go back and read these poems in a year’s time and re-read this review? Yes.
Lines that are particularly memorable right now.
From Toads Revisited:
Nowhere to go but indoors
No friends but empty chairs
From Ignorance:
Strange to know nothing, never to be sure
Of what is true or right or real,
But forced to qualify or so I feel,
Or Well, it does seem so:
Someone must know.
What will the choices be next year? They’ll be different that’s all I know.
