I finally realized what some of it reminds me -- the speaker in Margaret Atwood's poem "You Begin," parent or teacher to child: "Once you have learned these words / you will learn that there are more / words than you can ever learn."Michael Leddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05547732736861224886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-73313614633667349742016-01-31T09:32:52.544-06:002016-01-31T09:32:52.544-06:00SPARKER: Whitman!

How long before homemade haircuts look better? About six weeks, depending on how choppy it was cut. Yours looks much better than mine. Wanna trade?<br /><br />(I gave my daughter a haircut once [only once] when she was about ten. Had to take her to her grandmother's beautician to have it repaired.

Here's a sentence from a Jonathan Lethem essay;<br /><br />"Inspiration could be called inhaling the memory of an act never experienced."<br /><br />Thought you would like it, even if tangential.
