Giubbe Rosse

My life here is exactly as I’d wanted: time spent alone and thinking and writing interspersed with good friends, good food, good coffee and good wine. Now that summer is giving way to fall which will quickly give way to a solid winter, I feel as if this pattern will continue on pleasurably. I do hope to visit the Giubbe Rosse if only to visit its history, of which even the people it regards I know next to nothing; only that Gertrude Stein lends me some credibility, and that Pound has been lent great power posthumously by PM.. which makes me love him by extension though I have read none of his work.

To study again with PM... I feel guilty as though perhaps I was a part of the reason he quit desiring to teach workshops; then I wouldn’t really have a decision to make so much as a rejection to face! It is very possible he would turn me down for many reasons other and in addition to that, in which case… That’s that. Still not sure that working with PM is something I really want to do again; as good as it has continually been for me, it was heartbreaking while it was happening!
