I can't make head or tail of this, David, I know not where to have it, but
the attempt is a jouissance & nobody's gonna report me to the police is a
Geschenk. I do like those persistently emerging [ (weak) strong weak weak
strong weak] rhythms, as I hear it, varied by you, of course :"(a) parlance
of langour". Very sensuous. "Refinements of regret" ~ what was that about
Rimbaud's "Je regrette l'Europe aux anciens parapets" in Matthew Francis's
poems? Is one mail seeping into another ? O Déesse, the list is leaking (or
the leak is listing), the ultimate virus is snivelling up the waterworks. Si
je désire une eau d'Europe, it's a pond of gin with a paper boat to retch
in. Mais oui. Think I'll go & dry out with a joint.
