Rigor, but not exactly mortis (yet), hahahah.
I gotta get to a pile of corrections, and a couple of hours of writing. At least the weather is miserable, will be ok with a big pot of tea and music on. (with Elmo singing faintly in the distance, heheh..It's still Elmo, Nil, but not Dora no more, fortunately).

They capture you with their thoughts and you wish to understand their very essence through their words. For a moment, measured in a heart-beat, they hope you will.
Does the reader touch the poet ?

Does the reader touch the poet.. I think readers gotta be as much of poets as those who wrote the piece. They recreate. We all do. And well. Without receptive interpretation there's no meaning. Echo needs ears to be heard and resonate.
Today's Special is common good. And our inability to define it.

For your response reminded me of a Postmodern reading of Hamlet.
