even if thorns might be involved, what I meant was Half-torn, sorry.

  Subject: [New-Poetry] SANTA CLAUS


  I mentioned Santa Claus a couple of days ago and here he comes, worse than the Devil (there is that saying in Italy: As soon as you talk of the devil his tail appears - Come parli del diavolo arriva la coda)! I ordered 1 book, specifically:
  From Haiku to Lyriku : A Participant's Impressions of a Portion of Post-2000 North American Kernular Poetry by Bob Grumman, and I receive 4! 

  In the big already half-thorn package there is a "survivor of Hurricane Charlie":
  OF MANYWHERE-AT-ONCE Volume 1 by BG

  then another big fat book (262 pages all written till the said page):
  and the RIGIDNIKS: A Study of Cerebral Dysfunction by BG

  and finally the cutest book ever:
  A straynge Book by Bob Grumman which is "for Very Smart kids and 11 adults" - since it was first published in 1987 and I think that since then Bob did find 11 clever adults, then I can comfortably and rightly suppose that I am one of those kids and sit back and leisurely plan my future.

  What a wonderful surprise, thank you Bob!

  (A problem: I cannot fight with Bob right now at least till the festivities are over, is there anyone who would like to receive some ironical and nasty mails?)
