    East Side, West Side,
    All around the town.

    I cannot remember things I once read
    A few friends, but they are in cities.

    Looking down for miles
    Through high still air.
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    Bodily offspring I do not leave, but mental offspring I do. Well, my books do not have to be sent to school and college, and then insist on going into the church, or take to drinking, or marry their mother’s maid.
