when reading your work, its always the shadows that dwell in my understanding of your poem that keep me from being able top step back on the whole thing right away... It may not be the point to grasp sections of semblances, because it happens in vain when i try and isolate the capitalized parts, or the lower case, or where the words seem to break, or where the sounds seem to break, or how its spoken aloud.... Even a morsel of a poem like this requires much effort....
i should ask you to break my rule,
and reveal your secrets.
I think this is my favorite of all of your works. As I read and reread it I find deeper and more profound meanings in it. It's like solving a wonderful word puzzle.
This really challenges the reader to read closely, and absorb the assault on the senses that comes with your unique style. It really does change the reader in a subconscious way. It has an enigmatic quality to it, and I spent a lot of time trying to decipher why certain things were capitalized and what's behind the word choice, etc., and I came up with lots of ideas and enjoyed the experience. I feel like I will need to read more of your work (and I'm looking forward to it) in order to understand it better. Thanks!

LOverSeeaSons is my favorit line. This is profound and to the point. The style is still hard for me but not as hard as others. Ilike this one the best.
And then went down to the ship, Set keel to breakers, forth on the godly sea, and . . . Ezra Pound (TCOEP).
