I was rather shocked and horrified to read a review on the latest Hughes manifesto for the New World, which stated, incredibly, that the Main Man has at last gotten around to writing Poetry with an emotional content. Ughhhhhh. If there was a Tarot card to represent this situation it could only be the Tower crumbling under the gaze of a God's eye view. Horror upon horror , has the man really been writing all these years as a pure intellectual analysis of the pattern of symbols on paper, and none-the-less been raised to the Hierarchy of the great poets of all time and space. Now he has discovered emotion. Will the Universe so convulse in response and throw us all asunder, tremble the ground beneath our feet, or simply bring us to feel something, ....sensitively. The most amazing thing about this review was that the observation was not simply the opinion of the critic, but of the Author of the New Works himself. Personally, I cannot imagine writing without an emotional content, nor make analysis without the same. It is a suggestion from the Author in this declaration that we all might want to review his historical rise to fame and understand the true emotional-vacuum from which most of his works have sprung. Perhaps the world has finally reached the man beneath the mask. However , before confirming this demise of the condition of spiritual and emotional alienation I will have to review his New Works myself. He may not quite have made it yet into the real world of human spiritual and emotional beings. Heart and mind and body at one, with the sacred heart of the Universe. Bless you all to write, Soul-Poetry. Rickky.F.J. Kent-Morgan %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
