"WE" could commandeer the _100 Greatest Poets Anthology_. We each
chip in our 45 and then "own" the anthology. It'd be funn.
Distributed internationally, it gets around. The actual volume is as
large as a Webster Dictionary, but, to my memory, it is light, made
of weightless paper, puffed up, like Wonder Bread.
They also issue a CD, hire an actor to recite all of the poems.
Think on it. Our works, together, unified by one voice. James Earl
Jones. Is Shirley Bassey still alive? Robert Goulet. If we could
get Christina Amanpour, it would be a coup of the first order.
There's one of them at City Books giveaway bin now. Anybody want it?
