For me this poem sounds like the slow arduous tedious (for ABC) painstaking process of scanning and loading mailart and how I feel about ABC's approach to this process. Highly reccommend Merwin to all thinking/feeling mailart people out there on earth. He has great anti war poems as well. Also, The situation at the EC reminds me of the PR campaign simplifying our options in Iraq: Go big, Go long or go home. I give the EC 3-6 months. Coke with the cap left off the bottle over night. FLAT. I reccommend flickr.com. In the very short time I've been on it, I've met more people on flickr, found more exciting art and have had many more good conversations about mailart. There is a section for mailart and collage. Jesse and ZF and CLB are on it too. Incidentally, I sold 3 peices of mail art over the weekend for $40 each. I was about to send them to the EC too. I may scan them myself and put them in talk section. ABC: all'y'all been commemerated by a poem.The Comet Museum by W.S. Merwinso the feeling comes afterwardsome of it may reach us onlylong afterward when the momentitself is beyond reckoningbeyond time beyond memoryas though it were not moving inheaven neither burning fartherthrough any past nor ever toarrive again in time to bewhen it has gone the senses wakeall through the day they wait for ithere are the pictures that someone tookof what escaped us at the timeonly now can you remember
