"After Eden, everyone goes home." And "into its aftermath which is full of potential." "Mothers say happiness is inherited." "Care first. Decide about love later." I love the spontaneous play of almost bullet point observations riffing off one another. There is an immense honesty, a casual incisiveness that I find fresh and real.
I love this poem. To me it’s synchronic time in image and motion, all the fragments and juxtapositions so vivid, concentric circles and then that brilliant ending.. Thank you for this unique and unforgettable poem
Sprry, I meant AWFULLY (can;t spell in the morning before coffee) There asre noble ideas in the poem, but I am distanced from them by the wrier's tone of Public Address

Oh my. I do not see the concentric circles. Would you be willing to say more about that?
