WELL MR.
MATTERHORN
Tell me now, what is all that? Have you defined
the circular purpose of the Lazy Susan you depend
upon? Does your once-spinning world need now
to a stop default? All madness stops, it is said,
as sanity comes most near. And, yes then, we
all are made. R. D. Lang said that, some time
long ago. Ivan Illich, 'Deschooling Society', Rollo
May 'Power and Innocence'. So much, so much
to remember 'bout them very old days. March 1972.

I was crazy in love with words and symbols. My varieties
ran to varietal ideas, the vague mix-and-match of all
philosophy and school. All those other kids, jumping
off the cliffs at Taughannock Falls, while I just sat at
Cornell's hilltop retreat, reading my steady
world.
