Abstract

A book of poems, one of which (41-66) is Aesop's Garden. This is the kind of poetry that does not use punctuation except the parenthesis and the dash. I noted five levels of indentation. The poetry is heavy on imagery, including intercourse, birth, paradise, and the river. The first section of the six uses Zeno's paradox on the tortoise and the hare. The fifth section mentions Aesop's daughters (the muses?) and (63) says it is not the moral of the story/ but the endless narrative play/ of the moral.
