[lit-ideas] AW: Re: Thursday poem that will stand for Sunday's

Mr Henninge has registered amusement over the concluding lines

                I suck up the comfort,
                lean into bliss,
                hang
                ten
                with my Homer.

which he took to be referring to the blind Greek poet (having ignored the 
Winslow Homer context explicitly elaborated in the first lines of the poem).
