BLACKHEATH

16 September

Dearest Sylvia:

Looking back at one of your letters I considered the pictures you
suggest for London Exhibitions. I think the ones you suggest are
most suitable: Dressing Table and View from Attic for the London
group sounds alright to me. Your idea of taking them to Kensing-
ton on 24th is a good idea, too, if you don't find it too tiring.

Here are two poems which are about my attitude to poetry. The
poets referred to in the first one are Stevens (who tends to be a
bit Olympian and elderly) and Cummings who is just too boyish at
times:

The loaves of autumn are baked for Stevens.
The elderly avenues take auroras.
He's lucky, but poor us,
less adjusted to 'the painter's season.*

Though short of Fall we're not so young as
the boyish printemps merchant of sixty
Who's again fixity.
His name if you spring him is Cummings.

Where shall we drop from Cummings' trapeze
if it isn't into the lap of autumn,
from high bar to the down
where wounded forests collapse at a sneeze

Midair were perfect, if we could wait
between the most of gravity and flight.

POET AT HOME

The world is some poets' table
tapping out yes like a mad thing,
do you love, yes, girls, yes, land, yes,
like a big hand for the fireman
who saved the little girl and dog.

I read such poems in less time
than they took to write, can forget
the spiels in moments of any day.
I write on a table, too. It rocks,
but is not jumping anywhere.

Time for bed now, dearest Sylvia. I hope you sleep well. I love
you so much.
