It seems so silly, to have you back here from Chile – and
me looking forward to your return – and then not to call you up
and drag you over here. It seems to me that this has happened
before, in my life. I am working, approximately, from about 5:30
AM to 10 PM. And I’m not going to tell you that I don’t enjoy it,
because I do. But life is full. …And we do look forward to seeing
you. We have several times hit on a date, between us, when we were
going to ask you – but had to hold off, and then seen the time go.
Probably it would have been difficult for you to come over, any
one of these days, anyway. But we must give it a try.
I’m delighted that you like the book. Wonderful. Remembering
Poets is coming out in paperback in January. Kicking the Leaves
sold out its first printing, and has been reprinted. Things are
going quite well.
I do look forward to your volume of poems. I certainly do
want to see it, and I hope I can be of some help.
