    I know I just shared Gerard Manley Hopkins' Pied Beauty in comic strip form a couple of weeks ago, but this poem is apparently not done with me yet. A take-off of his poem showed up this week in my inbox, courtesy of Ted Kooser's American Life in Poetry newsletter, and that reminded me of a take-off I wrote for Charlotte Huck's poetry class when I was getting my MA at OSU (more years ago than I will admit to here).

    To be a upright benign being is to have a kind of openness to the world, an gift to group undeterminable things beyond your own pilot, that can lead you to be shattered in hugely extreme circumstances as which you were not to blame. That says something very impressive with the prerequisite of the ethical autobiography: that it is based on a conviction in the uncertain and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a shop than like a prize, something somewhat feeble, but whose very particular attraction is inseparable from that fragility.
