I forgot to mention, on revision, that it seems (for myself, anyway, if
not others) that it is not until you get to an infinite point of
absolute hopelessness that you are at all able to revise this writing,
which you have spent perhaps many years writing and where you face the
abject failure of a significant slice of your life, your very
metaphysical Being as a poet, and then making a sigh of great relief
that you need go no further with this venture, revision begins.
Call me a Romantic (I have read Kant's sublime) or perhaps an
Advant-Garde Postmodernist, if so wished... always a Modernist at heart.
