Compose and Be Composed
My
daughter took a course in New Haven, Ct.
(we
say New Haven: noblesse oblige so as to
not
fog the luster of any one’s
alma matrix
like Jews leave vowels out of any reference
to the divine) that I lacked the intestinal fortitude
to take: Daily Themes with Richard Sewell where
you had to write a paper every day —light & truth..

Turned
out: voice was everything.
Content’s
galore:
trivial or profound makes no never
mind. How you say, not what, counts. Media
is
the message. Not if if’s instructional, of
course—bearing
information. Fix a motorcycle.
Address
enrollment. Terrorism.
I
got fired from teaching composition
years ago
because
I didn’t care if they revised or not. Write
First.
Think Later. Write Your Ass Off .
Shibboleths
Or
you could take one foul shot at a time—just one.
Come
over here: sit on the bleachers with me.
We’ll workshop. Make it better.
