a letter from (no place like) Home
All correspondence now begins with the routine, but heartfelt,Dear Friend, hope you are safe and well...and I do….In my nuclear armageddon nightmares a half life and more ago I used to imagine the slow cloud of fallout drifting towards us on the weather, invisible and deadly.So I have dreamed these moments of spring grass and green, yellow, blue,when the plant world bursts into life.But in the joy of this moment there is dread.Strange walking at dawn,getting up early to get out, no [...]
