>Wanna know the corollary to that? I've been afraid you'd let me read your poetry, because I am afraid I don't have the ability to appreciate it enough! I'm always afraid I don't "get" poetry -- I love the poetry I read, but it's older style. I love Auden, Housman, Brentano, Heine, Millay. But the newer style? Forget it -- I just don't get it. And, being me, I know it;s something lacking in me.
So, not letting me read your poetry works for both of us -- symbiotic neuroses!
