try looking at this poem as a comment on language: how do you describe–name–a girl burning? how do you conceive of it? there’s tension between some sense of knowing and the language that verifies, articulates, substantiates…that knowing. that’s poetry.

thanks for being you, by the way, and giving us hope in your generation for saving what ours has screwed up…
