> I love
> I with the ice-chip eye
> I love.
Just a note about where this came from. Clive James interviewed
on TV a while back (you Aussies all watch Andrew Denton's "Enough Rope",
I hope?) talked about the "chip of ice" that writers have inside them.
The part that, when you are, for example, in tears at your
mother's grave, is saying, "I can use this!". And I knew what he meant.
On one level the "I" in this poem is me, or the reader - but after
I wrote it I thought maybe the "I" is a religious extremist, perhaps
even a terrorist.
