Apparition Poem #1473 (2)

A post-script to the first post regarding #1473 in denver syntax. A bit flippant, I think, to use the randy pic of Mary & I for #1473, when the target of the piece, as I had to re-remember, was more Julia B(rodsky), shown here. What we have is 2008-ism, Year of the Rat-ism, as I attempted to come to terms with a failed marriage and move forward along any opening vista I could. Julia, who began as my student at Temple and also worked at the Center City boutique South Moon Under, engendered a very raw reaction in, and from, me, even as our tryst, disappointingly, didn't wind up leading to a marriage, as is explored, with some rawness, in #1488.
