…a step ahead of the banker,
a moment behind convention,
putting off heaven and hell
as long as possible.
–from Blood Writing, by Sean Sexton
UPDATE:
The poet sends his picture, in his Querencia, and a painting. I’d love to see that place. Meanwhile, get his book!
Steve:
I'll send you some pictures if you'll tell me how to do it.

Sean: a friend recently recommended your Blood Writing and I have been reading it costantly. I intend more quotes on the blog.
Current favorites are Ditch Cleaning, A Horse Dies, Burial of the Freezer Items (sounds like my freezer), This Morning, Domesticity…
