to middlepath:

Thank you for the kind words. Let me address a few of the things you said and then I hope I can leave it be. a composition really should stand on its own.

1) “I’m sorry I didn’t get the message in part 2”

well the message is really the last line:

“A scandal on the internet. A threat to every Jew!”

Even if you don’t yourself know what the scandal is.

the rest of the section is about how I imagine this lapse happend,

and that even if I am wrong,the important thing is that it did.

Aside from personal information, there are many other things that dont belong being bandied about in public, as described nicely on the front page of the coffee room.

2) would I write some more poetry and post it here?

Well it took a tremendous amount out of me and to almost no purpose.

The people I most want to see it probably wont, because just as you hardly read other threads, I think they hardly read the poetry thread. This was a kind of temporary insanity, something I just had to do. I had such an attack once long ago and also to almost no purpose. I wish I still had that poem.

3) interesting that you prefered sections two and three.

part 3 is my least favorite. I wanted to fix it up some but simply had exhausted my mental energy.

All the best,
