Constellations

A lot of it is making constellations. Thus:

William Blake - : - (Ezra Pound) + (Gertrude Stein) + (Sigmund Freud) + (H.D.) - : - Alfred North Whitehead - : - Charles Olson - : - Walt Whitman - : - Jack Spicer - : - Robert Duncan

Whitehead is central. As Devin Johnston notes in the chapter "Sublime Undoing" in 'Precipitations' "Duncan returned to Whitehead throughout his life".

& how about this from Emily Dickinson:

526

To hear an Oriole sing
May be a common thing -
Or only a divine.

It is not of the Bird
Who sings the same, unheard,
As unto Crowd -

The Fashion of the Ear
Attireth that it hear
In Dun, or fair -

So whether it be Rune,
Or whether it be none
Is of within.

The “Tune is in the Tree,”
The Skeptic - showeth me -
“No Sir! In Thee!”


(c.1862)
