Hello my compadres,
Here below some of the ‘materials’ I’m currently
working with. I get a great many of them
just by burrowing through the footnotes and commentaries. I may find a way to turn these into poems,
smuggle them into real? full-bodied? poems, or not.
I would welcome you all to please feel free to
incorporate, argue with or zing off these in your own texts.
Please do feel free! Death to
copyright! (Sorry) I am interested to see how you imagine these
materials with your own.
p.s. – Rather than using confusing diacritics, I’ve
tried to do phonetic spellings of the Sanskrit words.
