                    I gotta pushback

   You’re really pushing back on Donne?

In light of wha Ive writtenwha Ive enjoyed in its throes  Yah 

                                                                     You havent

No. I haven’t.

So squealing pejoratively  to defend Donne . . . 

                                                     Do you know himhave read him

I’ve . I’ve heard his name. And I wasn’t being pejorative . . or didn’t mean to sound . so.

Christ I hope yare quick to the mat if someones at me in my absence When Im present no one bitchesbites their tongue can see it in the set of their jawthe coals in their eyes which they drop  but not before Ive seen 

                                                                                                     I coud be a real prick provoke beyond my original remarksargument but I let them off the hook   Actually Im a sweet guy if I agree with someone

   Sweet?

I said  Agree 

                 Otherwise notsomuch

So what’s your pushback? I realize I didn’t wait you out, your head came up out of the book and you railed.

Things stuffed down your throatyare punished for not soon forgotten  Woud love to have Donne before me take him by the throat an learn if his opening was a  an   I like an over a   an homage to John

Take him by the throat? 

Yah 

       I prefer my adversaries in striking distance  At remove theyre fearless 

I suppose Im in striking distance.

Beginning of the World we presume all things to have been produced in their best state All was perfect Knowledge kindles calentures burning zealI agree in some an is to others icy opium

                                                                            Wha bullshit icy opium   Although icy opium as a phonaesthetic is terribly attractive 

Ill take it

   That’s . . . what got your goat? About Donne?

Icy opium  Icy 

                I don think Donne did  Anif not he hasnt a right to solicit tha opinion or at least his detestable icy   Thas not been my experience An wellknown his words have weight   Unlike mine

   An . so . . who besides you have read those wor . .

                 A lot 

Seventeenth century?

Yes

I can say state it factually, I know your penchant, your unforgiving, arduous predilection for truth, and evidence, that if you hadn’t shared it with me I would not know it; or do I know how long I’ll know it.
