to AG, KG, and NC- a memory

K. Gibran "Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping. For only the hand of Life can contain our hearts. And stand together yet not too near together: For the pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow." The Prophet (Alfred A Knopf Publisher, 2001)

and then, to read Ginsberg to Cassady
a november missive
1947 and AG's writing,
so dismissive of KG
Ginsberg, oak
wanted under cypress shadow of Cassady

the mind keeps spinning

and i, too, howl
