THE FOREWORD BLUESWesli Court said I should write a book,A bunch of blues—enough to fill a book,And he’d design the cover. I said, “Look,If you’ll write half of them, then I will chooseA ball-point pen, a felt-tip—I will chooseTo join you in a modicum of blues.”And that’s the reason, Reader, we are here—You, Wes and me—we three assembled hereAmong these turning leaves yellow and sere.We hope you’ll think the words we write are fine,Our writing bold and dark, but our wordage fine . . . ,At least we hope you’ll like the cover design.Envoy EpilogueGo, little book of sorrows, cares and woes,But Wesli’s gone. Where? Only goodness knows.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    Edward V Bonner
