The Best Love Poem I Can Write at the Moment - Madrona #2, 1971

[cirerita]

Uncollected as of today... I wonder why ;)

It was published in several mags in the early 70's -besides Madrona- so I guess it was a popular poem back then. You can hear people laughing their ass off whenever he read the poem.

Anyway, nice Sunday poem...

Time for a Buk record. Thanks.

Uncollected?
I thought I'd read that before...

Thanks cirerita.

 

[cirerita]

Maybe you'd heard it before?

It might have been published under a different title, though.

His prices are generally at Gregor level or worse. I once sold him a book for $47 on eBay that I had bought for $15. He listed it immediately for $250. What's funny to me is he made a big deal of telling me the book was for a gift. That book is at most $50-60 on a good day.

$250?!

It's probably signed by Linda.
Not Beighle/Lee/..., the other one.

At least it can be add to the database. And maybe Abel picked the poem for a new volume of Buk poetry.

Yes, the reading of this on 'Poems and Insults' is pure gold!
