Park Mews,W.ll. 4 Oct 73 we met on 5 Oct My dear Derek, Many thanks for your comments on the poem. I have considered them care- fully and, as a result,omitted 1.2,which cuts out some of the Norse business and the half-pun Odin','Auden'. I'll try it on Douglas though he,like most editors, says he likes some of my poems but won't print them. Probably if one gets out of the swim it's harder to get in again than if one appears as Bill Snooks from Newcastle-above-Slime or somewhere. I might try a pseudonym and have poems posted from the provinces - or Camden Town. Yes,I very much feel Auden's loss. He was the greatest . A nice xx guy,too. What news from Dent's ? Hope to see you soon - and possibly on United Nations Day (Oct 24) which I always celebrate! Love to you both - Robert Text Saturday, August 20, 2016 - 11:10
