I think part of what drew me to begin devouring anthologies recently was a
sense of precisely the lack of such event-ing, though I tend to agree with you
about the importance of the event here.

in revealing something too the speading of words across the plate gives me
something to taste. for someone like me who comes to poetry from a background
where it was all 'foreign' (all greek to me) and comes to it through a seeming
necessity and desperation there is a wealth of life to be found in the ant.s I
must confess, though, that it was events that began to push me to the pages so
I probably have absolutely hardly any tiny differences and am just responding
out of some dialogue-urge. oh well ;-)
