this poem goes so to the heart of my sense of having lived in the 20th
century. it is a friend from the 60s who led me to it, a friend with whom I
share efforts to live an authentic personal life, with whom i have suffered
the separation from "we", and with whom I continue to respond to the "dark
birds of history" who demand our love for each other.
