[Andrew Hamlin Subject: [loud-fans] mcdonald-Miller natal day, hurray! Haven't seen much of them lately, haven't seen much of the list lately. But thought I'd give a birthday shout-out just in case. Steadfast (but not so much as the tin soldier), Andy THE BLIND SEE ONLY THIS WORLD (A Christmas Card) By John Wieners Today the Lamb of God arrives in the mail above the Cross, beside the Handsome Sailor from Russia in his turtleneck sweater. Today we make love in our minds. And women come to fore, winning the field. It is Christmas, Hanukkah,--heritages we leave behind in israel. There is a new cross in the wind, and it is our minds, imagination, will where the discovery is made of how to pass the night, how to share the gift of love, our bodies, which is true illumination of the present instant. There is no other journey to make. We receive all we need. Without insight, we remain blind. Without vision, we see only this world. - --from http://www.echonyc.com/~poets/poetry/wieners.htm ------------------------------ End of loud-fans-digest V10 #99 *******************************
