I forgot to mention that come bedtime that kid of mine has been asking me to read her poems.  I used to be able to write a decent poem, but no longer.  I looked through what I have on the shelves - Tu Fu?  too...  inaccessible.  Howl?  Too... pornographic.  Eliott - well she liked the Waste Land well enough - but it was over quick. So now I'm ending up with the Aeneid.  That's what we're reading through come bedtime anymore.  It' pretty much the best thing all week.

Ugh fuck, punched right in the biological clock, that sounds rad.

Did you ever read War Music?

You mentioned it and I'm interested, maybe I'll check it out.

In the meantime your clock will probably come unsprung in the 9 intervening years between this and birth.
