Douglas Dunn - whoever he might be - might have taken the first half
of the sentence out of my mind. i have no experience to either support or
contest the second half though it seems plausible. now, what do poems that
emerge in this fashion - from facts and meanings that their creators do not
understand completely, supposed to do to the readers? enlighten them?
