news of robert creeley

which I came across on Dagzine (my hat's off, way off, to Gary, by the way, for his taking on the arrogant academic wingnuts who wish to do what our university systems what Bush is presently doing to our country), perhaps hasn't hit me how I feel it should have hit me. I'm simply not as familiar with Creeley as I'd like to be. Not proud of that fact, mind you -- and I suppose now isn't an inappropriate time to begin to remedy it.

So many bright stars have gone dark lately . . .
