eight years ago I was abused physically and mentally‚ I didn’t think that even now it would haunt me‚ or that I’d have to go to therapy because of it. I won’t go near that house for as long as I live. Because the pain still lingers even if it was in the past. I lie on the floor of a hoarder’s bedroom‚ cluttered with trash‚ dirty cloths‚ spoiled food‚ and food stains in the cream colored carpet.

WHEN I WAS TWENTY years of age I went through an evening with Howard Nemerov. He was the main "renowned" writer I had ever met‚ however I would later discover that he was profoundly disillusioned by what he saw to be an absence of admiration from commentators and different artists. (I once heard Thom Gunn call him a "zombie.") My main recollections are of his awesome avidness to nail down the time and place for his late morning martini‚ him recounting "Animula" when I let him know I cherished Eliot
