I know a man
by Robert Creeley
 
As I sd to my   
friend, because I am   
always talking,—John, I 

 

sd, which was not his   
name, the darkness sur- 
rounds us, what 

 

can we do against 
it, or else, shall we & 
why not, buy a goddamn big car,
 
drive, he sd, for  
christ’s sake, look 
out where yr going.
