This contains John Betancourt, Mary Wickizer Burgess, Sam Cooper, Carla Coupe, Steve Coupe, Bonner Menking, Colin Azariah-Kribbs, Robert Reginald. A. E.

Sample text

The boy never moved. Finally the pilgrim approached the hollow in the tree and cried loudly, “Master! ” “That it will eat, and there it rests,” came the child’s instant reply. The spirit feeds on that, the holy. It rests there, in the sphere of the sacred. ” It is a single unbroken poem, each hymn or stanza linked to the previous by opening with that verse’s final word. The child poet had studied no grammars, trained himself in no poetic theory, learnt no scripture, sat at the feet of no guru. His songs erupted at the moment of ripeness, interlinked, complete, and without revision.

In the remaining poems the flute is Krishna’s. At the soft forest notes of his bamboo flute the women of Vrindavana itch to leave their houses and join him in the woods, for a night of dancing and lovemaking. I have read anthropologists who believe Krishna’s flute is a holdover from pastoral nomads, or even Ice Age migrations.
