From Chris, an unusual assessment.


Christopher Malcolm September 7 at 9:29pm
Ed,

For as long as I have known you you have been a man in the crosshairs of passion. Whether this places you (carfully listening) under the deck of a former lover or in the complexities of your relationship with T your dance with love has been a troubled gift. An extraordinary story. A deeply moved and moving set of experiences that you sought out in the grand fields of the unconscious and made them into a life. Had it not been for T it would have been L or P or R because these were all manifestations of that which you were seeking.

Breathe the toxic out with every breath....love is too frail to do otherwise.

You were beautiful at the Inukshuk.

Salut,

Love IXa

No longer drawing
back from an in-
commensurable fact.

Ditch; push into it.
Yourself, save; you
think to ditch saves
you. But no one can,
themselves, by cruelty;
they make themselves
cruel, and lost; not saved.
Empitted, not empowered;
you cannot rescue yourself,
yourself out of the ditch, pit.
That stinks, of death, death
Stinks. Ditch, Pit. Cruelty.
