Mr. Pertillar: This one intrigues me a great deal. It seems to be bubbling with so many issues that even after reading it four times there is more there. I particularly like the way this one sounds when read aloud. Truth can be blotted out by ourselves or others, it can be ignored or forgotten, it can be twisted to a false purpose, or it can be missed because we are looking for something else. Each of these unfortunate fates seems to be lurking in the background of this poem.
Very thought-provoking.
Many thanks,
G
