[New-Poetry] Bly in Cambridge on Plymption St.

[R Dillon]

I remember the time Bly lorded it over everyone at the Grolier.
He was in that serape, sitting on the couch, pontificating.
A lot of the locals were there: Bruce Comjean (Andy Wylie
and Patty Smith's publisher), Ken Irby, and George Burroughs,
Orson Bean's father. the mailman, and Judge Wyzanski,
Gordon's advisor on how to deal with the execution of his estate.  Bly was reading his own poem but no one heard it.
We were all too focused on asking ourselves,
"How does this guy get off coming in here and giving us
all the whatfor and wherefrom?"  Gordon let Bly go on.
