Thanks for the memory, Doc! Those last lines you quoted are from the
Patchen poem you assigned me in Spring '93. Ah yes, I remember it well:
"Shoot son, even if I could dance,/ There are a lot of better ways to have
a ball/Than scraping the hair off your own head."

This is a Patchen piece, one heard over and over on
hot nights in the
Theater Barn. Remember the one you did? , "Because sometimes, you can't
always be so," with "Talk about patriotism" and "Mother
Fritchie," and
"Shoot son, even if I could dance,/ There are a lot of better ways to have
a ball/Than scraping the hair off your own head."

Very lovely Doc. I will look it up.
Take care,

Wow, great stuff. I needed that. Finally something beyond just calling

Subject: [Winedale-l] Toast to Congress
"So the door closed; the rain closed,
The sun closed; also, the moon, a jar
Of raisin pudding, the first of October,
And half a raccoon. Now, alas there was
Nothing left except the world; and nobody
In his right mind expects the world
To do anything now except close."
The Pensive Rabbit
