I love that you are giving David so much play, and he would love it even more! He was a force- A giant Jew bear of a man with an extremely imposing physical presence-- Big hair, big gut, big everything. A poet-ogre with a fierce snarl to cover up his absurdly tender heart. He was a true outsider and believer in the poetic cause but I don't he would have minded a little of literary success and bit money in his pocket. But we can keep that on the down low.

Great poem! Savage, relentless, true.
