You do make me laugh Martin, here is _The _Man_ who reads slowly, better has
a certain difficulty in reading,
so he says he is reading:
- a heap of detective and schlock stories;
+ Lapis by Robert Kelly
+ Artorius by John Heath Stubbs
+ the Paris poems by Douglas Oliver
luckily he has put C.D.Wright aside
but has to add that he'll soon get back to her (God forbid otherwise!)
I am laughing Martin, sorry if I feel disrespectful but I do not mean it.
