brilliant. also; i have faced difficulty with this question before, and was thinking you would have an opinion: should one read poetry accompanied by a dictionary? i am conflicted. it doesn't feel intelligent enough when i write it and there is no testing of the english language, but then when i take my own medicine (in your poetry for example) i cannot understand some of the words and feel stupid and require a dictionary.
