Robert Frost and Dante, Cummings and Brodsky, T.S. Elliot and Virgil, prefered reading by the shore. In the depths of winter, by a quiet lake, or while camping in the woods. A book in the office, Always Frost in the MG. A stack in the livingroom, a few crated in the barn. Shakespear in the (euphemism) reading room. Sylvia plat with the cookbooks above the oven door. Catullus by the bed.

Regardless of what you think you see, and what you think of my decorum.

- Dear WinterFrost, // Sylvia Plath above the oven door? You have a wry sense of humor, brother poet, and a bit macabre. I like it! // I am sure that Shakespeare could not be more honored than to be in the euphemistically named Reading Room, since that is where a great deal of reading can be done; and, for those who love to read, will be done. // I love your biography. // I will tell you what I feel to be one of the most poignant cries of anguish in all of poetry, a line of deep sorrowful regret; this line by T.S. Eliot: "I have measured out my life in coffee spoons." // So much of my life was measured so. // I always found that to be a heart-breaking line. // Now I must consider new lines among my heart-breakers. These lines by Chadirock Ticheburne: "My thread is cut, and yet it is not spun. / And now I live, and now my life is done." // I repeat: I love your biography. It makes me feel that we are brothers of the heart. // Bye now. // --Michael LP, Mr. Poet
