[New-Poetry] Kindle 2

[Skip Fox]

I’m of as many minds on this as on many things. I too, the smell, the feel
of good paper. Yes, noting like a book, a cup of coffee, and a pencil! (I
know you can write in Kindle’s margins, but can you draw? Can you make an
exclamation point ½’’ tall? Etc.)

 

Yet, 1,500 books in my car when I get stopped by a train. In the doctor’s
waiting room. Hell, I’d take the book I was planning to read as well as the
Kindle because I’m always thinking of correspondences or differences and
wanting to see a certain passage, as from Melville’s “The Birthing of the
Whales,” a.s.a.p, plus course, some type of notebook.

 

 (I’ll bet many of us look strange in such waiting rooms. Always a book, a
pad, and a pen or pencil, right?)
