In the Island House, Circuit Ave., Oak Bluffs,

It has been said that "the Romantic poets were
little more than Death and Sex, and we're not real sure about the Death bit."
Not sure who said that. I guess it could very well have been me, though only
after my six weeks in London. Prior to that, they were love and mysticism and a
brilliant personal cosmology. To me, the Bright Star and Kublah Khan were real
people- love and war and pleasure- all wrapped up into one. All of Man's
expressive creativity lived within each verse, and faded as the poem
died.
How do you see me?
