This is my fantasy;between these four walls, I am filled.”“But you can’t live like this! This hotel smells, this room smells, you smell!The trash, the filth, you’re living like a bum. How can you stand this?”My fantasy. I hadn’t thought of him. His nasal monotone crept from thecorner, where he shifted away from the walls and dug a place for his shoesamong the garbage on the floor. He thrust his hands into the pockets of anovercoat several sizes too large. My most casual glance would make himflinch, arms pulled to his chest, half-closed fists like the flailing claws of awounded bird. I was strong and straining the restraints on my fantasy. Itowered above him and things hadn’t changed. I step on him; a catfish burstbeneath a rock. Catching him in a stare, I shook my head.“Spike.” We used to call to him in the shrill voice of his nagging mother,and to us, he was the lowest form of life. His old nickname could still silencehim. ‘‘Want a cigarette?”“I don’t smoke any more.” I held my arm closer, thrusting the cigarette athis mouth.“Here, take it.”“Got an ashtray?”“Use the floor.” He rubbed some ashes on his pants leg.“People are going to think you’re nuts, you know. Just like the guy fromback home, who shaved his head and butchered his mother. Are you hidingout from someone?” I’ve talked to your parents, and they don’t even knowwhere you are. What would they say if they saw this?”“My parents died when they moved to New Jersey; it won’t help them anyto worry about me. You’re still Spike, aren’t you?” He flinched, furtiveglances. I had taught him this. But there was no shelter for him in this room.The walls, arm’s length, closed in. I toyed with a cockroach flounderingamidst my sheets. I lay a match on its back. It heaved its melted body.Spike’s face flushed, then went white; but no rage could come. He was stillSpike, the smallest of us all, but older by three or four years. He’d beg us to lethim come along, finding some kind of solace in the thrashing of our confi¬dence.Through the thin wall, my neighbor beat his girlfriend. Day after day Ihave listened to them. He punches her, he kicks her, he knockes her headagainst the wall until they settle into their pattern: Bang Scream BangScream Bang Spike’s throat caught as the noises increased. His asthmaflared, his lungs heaved, he groped for air. I was the conductor of thisorchestra: Bang Scream Cough Bang Scream-chest spasms overwhelmed himinto the chair. He gulped for breath, and watched the smile played on myface. He thrust his face next to mine.“You should call the cops or something! He could be murdering that girl!Can’t you go and stop it?” He grabbed my arm. “How can you stand this?” Ipushed him away.“Why should I stop them? They’re at it all the time. That’s their part,that’s what they do.” The girl gave one last cry, and settled into a muffledsob. He beat her with less force.“What if he kills her?”“What about it?”“You don’t care? The noise doesn’t even bother you?”“It’s not noise, Spike, it’s music, but you couldn’t hear it. You can neverhear it when you’re part of it. If you could only remove yourself! Then, all ofit, every sound, becomes part of a great rhythm that you can conduct. But aspart of a river, you can only flow along with it. The radiator knocks, hisses,rats gnaw at the wood, plaster peels from the wall, water flushes throughthe pipes, the lightbulb buzzes, my neighbor beats his girlfriend. Asconductor of this orchestra, I shape and bend the whole world as my music.”We smoked in silence. Spike gagged at the rank smells that solidified theair. My neighbor beat with renewed fury. Her long plaintive squeals rosehysterically until they broke into a sad, resigned laugh. Spike sank furtherin the chair, nodding his head. He stared at the wall of brick that threatenedmy window.I put on a jacket, and brushed my hair in a piece of mirror I had hung onthe wall. I stood for a while, making faces at myself.“You know, 1 haven’t been out of this place in a month. Is it cold out?” “Not too bad. A month? I can’t believe you.”I turned my back on him. By leaning against the door, I could hear whatwas happening in the hall. When I was sure it was empty, I motioned forSpike to leave.“Be quiet, I don’t want anybody to see us.”We ran through the hall and down the stairs. I blinked in the sun andwalked west. Spike ran at my heels. I was to show him the city.IIThe moth on the subway flew low, hopping between the feet of a PuertoRican family; the young son giggled, pretending to kill it. I stood by thedoors, hoping it would fly out at the next stop — the breeze of the doorsblew it back between a white sandal and my own dirty sneaker.I would have reached down, gently lifting it, and saved its thin life, but Icame up with excuses: it wasn’t strong enough and could never find its way;someone would probably kill it according to some natural impulse — no onewould ever help me. Who was I to play God? The other passengers waitedwondering if I would kill it so they wouldn’t have to.In the hallway to the bathroom, I groped against the walls and fought adarkness punctured by the weak flickerings of a blackened bulb. The firstweek I moved in, I was flushed with independence. Strong. Bells pealed, anarena of people cheered. I could fly, I could ignore.My neighbor’s door burst open and slammed shut. He stood in front of me,his eyes burning, blocking the hall. His breath hissed wildly through histeeth. A wave of fetid smells pushed me against the door. I looked up atthis man. He seethed in some invented rage. I straightened into my ownstance, standing a head taller than him. He flexed his arms at his sides,sharp muscles traced by veins, leeches beneath his skin. The few hairs on hishead exploded onto his face in a patchy, unkempt beard. His thin lips pulledback to jut decayed teeth like fangs. He smashed his fist into the wall nextto my head.“You wanna fuck my woman you gotta fuck me first.” He licked his lips,they remained dry and chapped. He stared out of the corner of his eye.“You wanna fuck my woman you gotta fuck me first. And I’m gonna fuckyou up.”I pushed past him and into the bathroom. The sucking sounds of his mouthmelted in a crush of noise, an ocean beating sand. His door closed. I ran backinto my room.I have not seen him since then; content to hear him ravage the girl hekeeps locked in his room. A pawn in a game of rapings and beatings. Theirbrutal routine, like the drum beat of a train, forces me to sleep.“In the ghetto, built by their own shivering hands, they push and packthemselves, finding if not safety, then security. What is a puzzle if even onepiece is missing? Strength by numbers, combined, inseparable, dies in achain begun by one. They all live in this ghetto.“But I have pulled away and found myself alone, free. The walls theyhave built, are not my obstacles. My fortress is behind my wall of silence.”Spike sat on the dresser, swinging his legs harder as I spoke. He shook hishead, his mind collapsed, a fevered storm. The noise of his brain swayed hisbody. He moaned. He pressed his hands over his ears. I hacked at him. Iclutched his bony shoulders and whirled him around the room. He erupted.We bounced against the walls, cracking the plaster. Years of conceitunleashed, Spike shattered the room. The dresser splintered against thedoor, he trampled it. He ripped at the walls, tearing out chunks of plaster.The flesh tore from his fingertips. He smeared the blood with the palm of hishands. The metal frame of my bed went out of the window. Garbage flewthrough the room and hung in dripping clumps. Spike shouted, his wordschoked and garbled, only his eyes could plead for help. I rejoiced in thenoise. I spun him still harder. His fist flew into the mirror and it shatteredinto spears of images. I threw him against the wall, and he fell, lying in thegarbage. The room spun around him.The Chicago Literary Review*, June 4, 1982—5V Contacts for Sale!What Is A Bargain?The 4 questions most frequently asked about contact lenses are:1.

The acrid odor ofthe room burned his nostrils. He backed against the door. The room fell tosilence. I caught my breath.“You look at me as if I were some new beast! What makes you think that Iam changed, any different than who I was when you used to know me? I letmyself think, I am not afraid to let my fantasies guide me. In your ghetto,you know where the end is from the beginning. I can’t live with thoseboundaries.’’“You’ve got all the answers all right. Crazy answers that fit you into thisshithole. I came here because I hoped things would be different. I wanted toshow you that I’ve changed, that I have friends now who even look up tome! You treated me like dirt. You beat me still.”“Now and then, you were in the company of gods.” He quieted. He had noanswer.“You’re always trying to fit in somewhere! But you don’t see that itmeans nothing to be a part of the world’s rhythm. I stand back andorchestrate.”He pushed out his chest and mustered a smile. I stared at him and hedeflated. He switched track.“You want to get something to eat?”I threw a cigarette to him. The matches flare lit up his face, his weakfeatures created no shadows. I fingered my forehead and the deep crevicesof my eyes, tapping at the hardness of my jaw. His smile fell. I reached intothe closet and brought out two half-eaten cans of soup, brushing away somecockroaches. I scraped the crusted food from the pot and wiped it with apiece of newspaper. I emptied the cans and set the pot on a hotplate.Spike’s face twisted.“We’re not going to eat that are we?”“Spike, you have to learn to survive. This is food.”“But we could go to a deli or something. We can’t eat this slop!”“You think I’m the only one who’s got cockroaches? Here you can clean thisspoon, the bathroom’s down the hall. Don’t let the guy next door see you,though. Better run.”“All this talk about freedom, and you keep yourself locked in this room?Haven’t you ever seen this guy? He beats that girl all day, and you don’teven know who he is? You’re afraid of him!”“Of course I’m not afraid of him, I just don’t want to see him. And shecan’t be worth too much. Actually, Spike, you’re not all that much differentfrom them. They play a part, with no conception of stepping out of theirfurrowed role. Like believing in an end of the universe, or believing in agod, they put themselves under something else’s direction. My fantasy, myDeath Ride, is breaking free of that.”“Death is the answer? You’re going to kill yourself?”“Death is the answer for you, for those two next door, to everybody, but not for me. You find your freedom in death, you can relax then, because it isonly when you lie cold and infested in the ground that you can be alone. Iam separate, isolated. I soar in my freedom, the world plods below me. Noquestions, no explanations, no arguments.”His head shook, a river of sweat zigzagged down his face. His knuckleswhitened around the spoon. I pulled the soup off the burner and poured itinto two cups. I gulped at the soup, and scalded my mouth, dripping on myshirt. I spit bits of burnt flesh at the wall. Spike played with his soup,blowing gently on each spoonful, holding it in his mouth until he couldswallow it, carefully catching the soup that slipped from the corner of hismouth. I lit a cigarette and watched the smoke drift over him.!VThis time it did seem like he would kill her; a change in tempo, morefurious. An urgent melody testing the confines of rhythm. The savagebeating of my neighbor’s fists were the background, cutting her screamsinto a stacatto gurgle. He grabbed her hair and threw her down. Herforehead smashed into a table. She twisted on the floor, blood flowing intoher eyes, desperately trying to block him as he kicked her. I sat on my bed,engrossed in the sounds of violence; Spike and my room lost and forgotten.Each sound wove into an undulating music that caressed and propelled me,wilder and faster as my neighbor’s fury increased. Her screams became thewail of a dog broken beneath the wheels of a car.Spike moaned and clutched his head, and ran madly around the room. Heyelled at me, howling for me to do something, but I was lost to him, passingthe last wall, limitless. Looking out at an ocean; the music broke free,crashing past form. Spike wrapped himself in his screams. He hit himself inthe head. He scratched and kicked at the door. He panicked.Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! She lay dying as he slashed away her lastreserves of strength. A train hurled past the beach, sputters. The oceanbeats and reshapes at leisure. I lay back afloat, inciting the noise. It swelleduntil it was no longer heard, but felt, filling me.VThe door broke free from its hinges. Spike fell into the hallway, his voicebarely a growl. He kicked in my neighbor’s door and ran in with his fists inthe air. He tripped over the girl’s beaten body and fell into a puddle ofblood4 He looked up in time to see the crowbar crush into his head. Hecollapsed against the girl.They carried them away in solemn procession; my neighbor, in astraight-jacket, screamed and bit. His eyes flipped from side to side in theirsockets. Spike and the girl lay still beneath darkened sheets. I sat back onmy mattress. I pulled the legs from a cockroach.

The short poems in this new bookwork individually and together to revealthe difficulty of expressing experience inan orderly or systematic way. The firstclue to this difficulty comes rapidly — thefirst pages of the book present us with an“Epilogue” and a “Prologue,” in thatorder.Waiting for My Life is divided into threeparts, which are apparently autobio¬graphical and roughly chronological. “Fri¬day’s Child,” the first section, concernschildhood — some poems (“Dreams,” “OneWay Mirror Back,” “Elegy,” and “Waitingfor My Life”) are remembrances of thepoet’s own youth, and most of the othersconcern children in one way or another.The poet attempts, seemingly, to order herexperience by looking back at her child¬hood or by examining childhood itself. Thisattempt fails (of course — failure is whatshe’s really attempting) from the start: inthe first poem of the book, “Dreams,” shetells us that “the place where the chil¬dren/we were/ rock in the arms of the chil¬dren/we have become” is “the only after¬life we know.” Looking back in our dreamsis looking forward to “afterlife.” Thepoem “Friday’s Child” looks back to a child — “We always called Cassandra/imma¬ture” — who looks forward to death —“All words, anyway/are epitaphs.” Thepoet looks at her “own daughter...in a cir¬cle of light” in “Dress Rehearsal,” andquickly, in her imagination, marries andburies her, “seeing as in a speeded upfilm.” Looking back (or down), in thispoem, necessitates looking forward. Expe¬rience cannot be fixed in memory andmade to stay there; it cannot be ordered inart: it breaks its chronological bounds.Neither memory nor the art which at¬tempts to order it can be relied on: “What Iremember/ hardly happened/ what theysay happened/ I hardly remember” (“OneWay Mirror Back”).In “The War Between Desire and Daili-ness,” the second section of the book, Pas¬tan looks at her present existence — hermarried, domestic life. She never looks atit squarely, however; the focus shifts orflips over on itself. Symbols and imagesricochet off one another or even switchplaces in this section. “Meditation By theStove” reads like a feminist poem of do¬mestic self-sacrifice and tedium, ending,And I have banked the fires of mybody/into a small domestic flame forothers/to warm their hands on for awhile,but the poet tells us in “Who Is It Ac¬cuses Us?” that “we have chosen the dan¬marian realty,inc.mREALTORStudio and 1 BedroomApartments Available— Students Welcome —On Campus Bus LineConcerned Service5480 S.

Pastanbanks and stokes her images, and widensand narrows her perspective, and daili-ness and desire are transformed — and re¬transformed — with each new poem.This middle section’s best and most“equivocal” poem, “The War Between De¬sire and Dailiness,” sets up oppositionsand then transforms commonplace and fac¬ile notions about those oppositions. Desireis opposed to dailiness, and “longing” to“order,” yet — as in several of the other“domestic” poems of this section — thevivid, violent imagery (“spoons in thefists/ of children” and “dates on the calen¬dar marked/ in blood”) is associated withdailiness. It is, furthermore, privacy andindividuality which are threatened by the“thaw” of desire: the words "I think/ Iknow your mind” set off the war. Thoughthis poem ends by giving order the victoryover desire — “Spring is the shortest sea¬son/ Let dailiness win.” — order and daili¬ness have been shown to ally themselveswith (in order to protect) something fierceand fiercely private — the sanctity of theindividual mind (which, as we have seen,cannot itself order experience, or make itinto a “dailiness”). External order pro¬tects internal freedom and privacy. Daili¬ness stokes the fire and frees the privateperson — or poet.The third section of this book, “The Ver¬dict of Snow,” mirrors the first section byseeming to look forward to pain, old age,and the finality (final ordering?) of death.Just as in the first section, looking back¬ward necessitated looking forward, in thissection the poet cannot focus on disease orpain without (literally, you might say) fall¬ing back on the metaphors of youth: in“After minor surgery” the diseased bodyis “a constant lover/ who flirts for the /first time/ with faithlessness.” and thepain of “Pain” is “more faithful/ than lover or husband” (in a manner charac¬teristic of Pastan, apparently like con¬cepts — pain and disease — are describedby opposing similes). “My Achilles Son”stresses the continuity of life (one’s past)into old age: though “Nothing is left tohappen,” the poet is still periodically awa¬kened by her son, who calls her on thephone, reintroducing a “murderous hive/of possibilities.” The language of youthand love is used to express pain and oldage, and the past prohibits the blanknessof sleep.Two of the final poems in Waiting for MyLife — “25th Anniversary” and “Ethics” —are fairly straightforward and upbeattestimonies to old age, both of them imply¬ing that an increase in knowledge of loveand art and life accompanies it. It is twoother poems, however, which better fulfillthe purpose of this book — to show the dif¬ficulty of expressing experience in an or¬derly, coherent, systematic fashion.“There Are Poems” is a mirror of “Elegy”in the first section, dealing, like it, with un¬written poems. The poem which is the sub¬ject of “Elegy,” however, is “coiled into anold ring/ or stopping the hands/ of awatch,” clogging or impeding; the unwrit¬ten poem of “There Are Poems,” on theother hand, dissolves, leaving “the pureblue of insight.” The “childhood” poem isunwritten because it is stuck, stopped —and the title of the poem about it is fun¬ereal; the “old age” poem ends with clearinsight, a tabula rasa, potential for anotherpoem, or another insight. Old age wipesclean what was clogged in childhood: likethe reversal of “Epilogue” and “Pro¬logue,” these interreflecting poems worktogether to defy order and system , bymaking the end the beginning. Linda Pas¬tan knows that orderly and systematic ex¬pression of experience is not possiblewhen experience is mixed, resonant, andvery possibly circular, and she also knowsenough to end her book with the words“towards silence.” a move which erasesher tablet and points us to the next book(unless, of course, we choose to go “back”to the “Epilogue,” which ends Only thelake stayed the same, as the pages of abook on which everything remains to bewritten.).—Sarah TuoheyMOVING?RYDER RENTS TRUCKS10% OFF!ON ONE-WAY RENTALS• Local and one-way rates• Move wIth a friend• Minimum age requirement todrive — only 18 years old• Fast, easy and dependableVISA’ • One-Way & Local Moves• Expires 6/30/82• Good at either locationRyder Truck Rental, Inc.1050 W.

And yetfor most children to reach a reason¬ably productive adulthood takescare, attention, real devotion. How isit then that those moments when lovefails, as all love must, can lay downsuch enduring and constraining pat¬terns? The feast that Anne Tyler setsbefore her reader is a beautifullydrawn look at the workings of thismystery, this sorry fact of life.At the center of life in this lucid andcompelling book is Pearl, mother ofthree, orphaned daughter, aban¬ doned wife - a woman who must pro¬tect herself at all costs from having toface any confirmation of the unten¬able: her secret, ineradicable knowl¬edge that she is one who cannot holdlove. Her very efforts to save face, tohold on to an acceptable idea of her¬self, tend to separate her fromothers, exacerbating her fears andspurring her to ever more desperateand lonely measures. No matter whattroubles she faces, she can neverallow the risk of humiliation that isthe price of seeking comfort and sup¬port, and so she has lived out her timein a tight frenzy of order and rage.The themes sounded in her life aretaken up in intricate variation in thelives of her children, shaping and alsolimiting what they are able to haveand to give.Only briefly, when her love for herhusband was new and untainted, hasPearl felt securely loved andcherished. She cannot, then, give herchildren a true sense of security: in¬stead, she demands of them the affir¬mation that comes from being thecenter of their worlds. At the sametime, they represent to her the possi¬bility of loss, that primitive “proof”that one is not lovable. As they ap¬proach adolescence and lives away from her, Pearl finally drives off herhusband with the ferocity of her needto examine and display his failings -each one livid proof of her own unwor¬thiness, perhaps, forcing her evercloser to what she must not see.Once she is their sole support, Pearlis able to provide for her childrencompetently enough, but they mustlive on the frightening edge of herwrath and resentment, of her anxiousneed to control. She can give care butnot comfort: her oldest son describesher as “a nonfeeder, if ever therewas one,” a mother who feels so putupon and so empty herself that shecan serve only poorly cooked, unap¬petizing food. Not surprisingly, foodand cooking, eating and refusing toeat, feeding others, as well as lessconcrete forms of taking in and of giv¬ing, all become in varied ways focalpoints of intensity in the lives ofPearl’s children.Seeing and understanding can alsobe thought of as forms of taking in.Here, too, Pearl’s ways of managingprofoundly affect her children’s lives.So deep is her need not to have pain¬ful truths spoken that when their fa¬ther leaves her, for example, shenever acknowledges to them whathas happened. She can somehow convince herself that they will see or no¬tice only what she is willing to haveknown. Pearl’s need to isolateaspects of her experience in an at¬tempt to protect herself from unbear¬able emotions, but it deprives herchildren of a context in which to expe¬rience emotional events. Each resortsto interpretations of recognized butunnamed patterns of events thatcenter upon that child and a necessari¬ly limited view of a world that Pearldesperately wants not to be coherent.Her children's ability to make sense oftheir world and of the reactions of the people in it are profoundly affectedby the methods each adopts to con¬tend with her consistent attempts atdistortion.It is only at the end of her life, nowblind and refusing to admit it, thatPearl can bring herself to an attemptto make sense of her life. Her musingsand memories bring her to momentsof clarity and integration, but also tomoments of real blindness when un¬derstanding is still too costly and shemust retreat to an insistence thatevents, after all, have no meaning.She is not able to heal the violentbreach that she has had to maintainbetween good and bad, lovable andnot lovable - a split that she has ex¬ternalized in her treatment of her twosons, maiming both their lives. Herdaughter alone has the necessarystrength, or perhaps permission, towrench herself free from the old pat¬terns, but only with great difficultyand pain, leaving some flesh in theirtrap.Throughout this period of preparingto die, Pearl has her favorite son -who has learned to inform her in anoblique fashion that does not forceher to acknowledge her lack of sight -search again and again through herold photographs, telling her what hesees without being told what she isseeing. Eventually she succeeds in re¬capturing the memory of a beautifulmorning in her youth, a rare momentof integration when she had feltwhole, of a piece, at one with theworla around her and joyful. Once shehas grasped that memory firmly.Pearl’s search is at an end. It is onlyto her funeral that she can ask herhusband, who has never sought a di¬vorce, to return, thus bestowing onher children another piece of the puzof their lives.—Marilyn GarnerSHAPIRO PAINTINGS ARE OVERDUE!Return them today and save on additional late fees (25c a day, including weekends)Student Activities Office, Room 210, Ida Noyes Hall(Monday ■ Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.)MEDICAL SCHOOL OPENINGSImmediate Openings Available in Foreign Medical SchoolFully AccreditedALSO AVAILABLE FOR DENTAL SCHOOLS• LOANS AVAILABLE • INTERVIEWS BEGINNING IMMEDIATELYFor further details and/or appointment callDr. Manley (716) 882-2803 i—GRAFF & CHECKReal Estate1617 E. 55th St.1%-2%-4 room & 6 roomapartments.

HARPER288-2233 Plus COMPLETECOMMERCIALOFFSETPRINTINGSERVICE20—The Chicago Literary Review, June 4, 1982—by Liz Hutar and Terence WhalenJohn Nims is this year's visiting professor of poetry. He also teaches English at theUniversity of Illinois at Chicago Circle, and is currently editor of Poetry magazine. Hehas published numerous books of his own poetry and translations, as well as TheHarper Anthology of Poetry.CLR: Your own poetry has been described as formal, metrical, elegant. How does thisaffect the way you teach composition? Can these qualities be taught? AN INTERVIEWWITH V./NIMS: I suppose one thing that students can do is exercises in the various forms, aswe’ve been doing in class — and we can, say, write sonnets, write villanelles — sure,that can be taught. And I suppose that metrical verse can be taught. I don’t know howyou teach elegance.CLR: How does the way you write your poetry translate into the way you teachpoetry to others?NIMS: I try not to let it affect teaching. I try to think there are sort of two “me”s. Theone that writes, or doesn’t really have anything to do with what goes on in class —because I don’t think one ought to teach other people to write the way one likes towrite oneself — like you say I’m supposed to be formal, but I’ve noticed in readingmanuscripts for Poetry that I don’t especially like the formal things submitted, andthat nearly everything we’ve published has been what we might call informal. Well,the way most poets are writing today. I’ve been at Poetry for five years and twicewe’ve had something like a group of sonnets, but every time I see a sonnet I get quiteuneasy about it, and rather reluctant to publish it unless it’s just terrific, you know,better than a free verse poem would be. So I think it’s a good idea to do what yousaid Alan Shapiro did: make students work through all the forms. But I don’t thinkyou ought to tell them that's the way they ought to write: I mean, it’s purely like aboxer’s roadwork or calisthenics: once you’ve gone through it, forget it.CLR: Do you feel you’d like to keep on writing formal verse?NIMS: Yes. Well, I started that way; it's sort of deeply ingrained by now, and it’seasier, really, most of the time; though not everything I’ve done has been what you’dcall formal — there are some things that I’d call free verse.CLR: Are the best poems today written in the freer, informal verse, or do you thinkthe best poems are going back to that formal style of writing?NIMS: The best poems today are not likely to be in any of the traditional forms,though there are a few poets who continue to use them — like Marilyn Hecker. She'sdone two or three books, and her books have villanelles and sixteeners and sonnets,and she’s very good, but she also writes in freer forms — but I think typically todaythe good poets show that they know and probably have sometimes used what we callthe traditional forms, but they are using them quite freely. Like there are still quite afew poets who like iambic pentameter — say. Ashbery and Ammons — often fait intoit, but they use it quite freely, and you never get just unvarying lines of it.CLR: So would you say that was one of the strengths of formal poetry?NIMS: The fact that you can relax it, yes. If you’re writing free verse you can’t reallyfree it up — you can tighten it up, maybe — but if you are writing in some tighterform, say a sonnet — which a few people still do — you can keep relaxing it all thetime.CLR: Do you think it’s beneficial for an aspiring poet to master the forms first beforegoing into free verse?NIMS: I think so, sure. I think theoretically, as I’ve probably said in class, the youngpoet ought to be able to do in a formal way everything that’s been done in thehistory of poetry in his language, and maybe in other languages (Pound would havesaid in other languages). Yes, he ought to be able to write a respectable sonnet, eventhough he never writes one seriously, but only sort of for fun. I think that would bethe ideal training, but I don’t know how many people get the ideal training.But that'sthe way it is in the sciences, isn’t it? If you’re a doctor or an atomic physicist, youstart by knowing what’s been done up to now, and you go on from there. We’d bevery suspicious of a doctor who just hung out a shingle saying “brain surgeon’’, andwas self-taught at home and had no idea what had been done before.CLR: Speaking of being self-taught, what’s the place of the class in writing poetry?How can a teacher teach poetry in a classroom? JOHNFREDRICK NIMSNIMS: Teach the writing of poetry? Well, when I grew up, if indeed I did, thereweren’t any poetry workshops, and I think I really lost some time, because I waswriting in college, and when I was your age there was no one to show anything to, soI didn’t know how awful some of my poems were. Whereas, if I had been in a poetryworkshop, I would have been told rather soon: this is wordy and sentimental, andyou’ve mixed up your images. I think a poetry workshop can save a young writertime in ways like this.CLR: What, then, is the primary function of a writing class — to do exercises or todiscuss each student’s original work?NIMS: I don’t know whether one can say which is more important. They seem to gohand in hand. Maybe the second is more important — talking about what you’vewritten, because I can imagine a good poet who would have been very resistant whenyoung to doing exercises of any sort. I’m not sure that’s common, but I can imaginethat. And it might be very bad for him to write sonnets or villanelles or things of thatsort. That’s why I thought I said in class if you feel that it is really doing violence toyour nature, don’t do the exercises.CLR: Is it possible for a poetry class to make a poet? To turn someone who wouldn'thave been a good poet into one? NIMS: I’ve had different favorites at different times. I’ve liked quite a few poets. I’vebeen lucky in that I had a chance to get a good enough knowledge of several otherlanguages to be able to read the poetry in them. For example, I had four years ofLatin in high school, and four more in college, and some in graduate school; and when Iwent to college I thought I was going to study law, and whoever was making out theschedules said: “Well, that means you take Greek’’, and then I had four years ofGreek. My PhD here at Chicago was in Comparative Literature, in tragedy in Greek,Latin, French and English. Well, I was just lucky in knowing those languages, and I'mvery fond of poets in all four. And then later we lived in Italy tor two years and Iread a lot of Dante with an Italian teacher, and after that we lived in Spain for twoyears and I had the same chance there. So I have been very lucky in being exposed, Ithink, kind of closely to other languages, and some of my favorite poets are. well:Sappho, Catullus, Racine, and St. John of the Cross, and people I’ve translated. Andthen in English I suppose l like most — are you asking me whom I like most? — well,of the traditional people I like Donne, Yeats and Chaucer, and maybe minor poetsamong the Elizabethans. And a whole lot of modern poets: this really is a great ageof poetry, and we've had in our time, at least in our century, some of the best poetsin English: Pound, Eliot, Stevens, Frost, Marianne Moore; I’m probably forgettingsome, but they're all really great. I'm not sure there's anyone that good today, butthen there are a lot of younger poets I like, while realizing they’re not really as goodas Stevens or Eliot or Frost or Moore, as far as l know.NIMS: I doubt it. You can’t make a silk purse out of you-know-what. If there's notalent there at all I don’t suppose anything can happen. And also, I think one couldknow all there is to know about the writing of poetry, and know all the forms and beable to write a sample of any rhythm, and still never write a good poem. He'd just besort of a theorist of poetry.CLR: Who are your favorite poets? CLR: Why not? Is it something about the age?NIMS: Oh no. I think that kind of thing just happens accidentally. Like there are ageswhen no good poets happen to be born, then maybe a whole cluster comes along atone time. I don't know enough about social or cultural background to know how comeduring and after World War I there were so many good writers. They just happenedto be there.The Chicago Literary Review, June 4, 1982—21NIMS (cont.)CLR: Could it be the styles that contemporary poets are writing in?NIMS: Well, those people I mentioned had very different styles, like Eliot is not likeMarianne Moore, and neither is much like Wallace Stevens: they’re all very good intheir own way, and I suppose it was just an individual talent plus lucky circumstancesin life that encouraged that kind of talent. I don’t know why it if . Of course, maybethere are great poets today that we don’t know anything about — like if we'd livedin 1863 we wouldn’t have known about Emily Dickinson. She just wouldn’t have“been” for us. And who knows? Maybe the great poet of our time is some young manor some young woman who doesn’t go to writers' conferences and doesn’t like to readhis poems, and doesn’t care about little magazines.CLR: What relation does translation bear towards the original composition?NIMS: Well, there are various ways of translating a poem, of course. There’s what iscalled “the literal translation,” that kind you get in some Penguin books, where youget a word for word translation maybe at the bottom of the page, and it’s notinterested at all in poetic qualities and things like sound or rhythm or kind oflanguage used, or if a word has, say, a double meaning, it ignores that and just givesone meaning. And then there’s something like the more literary translation, whichtries to write a poem which gives a sense of what the original poem was like. That’sthe only kind of translation I really enjoy doing; I don't think literal translations areany fun. They’re like exercises in a foreign language class: you just need a dictionary.But, the kind I like to do is the kind that takes the original poem and sees what thethought is, and then sees what kind of language it was expressed in — you have tocheck up on scholarly editions to know that. Is the Latin used in this poem colloquial?Is it considered vulgar? What’s its tone in the language? Is it simple, or is it literary?Then you take into account things like sound effects: like Virgil has a famous lineabout galloping horses, and it’s supposed to sound like horses galloping across aplain; okay, you try to do that in English. You think whether or not you want to do therhythm of the original poem. You think whether or nor you want to do the form. Andthen, you recombine all of these things in your head and write a poem using as manyof these as you can, knowing very well that something is going to be lost.CLR: If you have to choose, because something has to be lost, what is most importantto keep?NIMS: I think that probably differs in every case. You know, translating a line I mayfeel I’ve just got to get this thought exactly, and in another line, the poet wasobviously aiming at a sound effect primarily, and it’s a shame to leave that out.Sometimes the rhyme matters — I know a lot of translators think you can’t do rhymetranslations because it interferes with the thought of the original; on the other hand,the original poet was letting this interfere all the time with what he wanted to say. Itdidn’t come to him naturally in rhyme, either, and yet he thought the rhyme naturalenough so that it was worth going to a lot of trouble for. So, there isn’t any generalrule about this. The ideal is, you take a stanza and you think: if he had his talent, andEnglish were his language, and he were writing in this time, how would he have saidthis? That’s the ideal, maybe, but it's more complicated than that because maybe theform of the original is in his language a perfectly natural form, whereas in English itmight come out as stilted and literary, and in that case you figure maybe you don’twant to use this form, but something like an equivalent.CLR: Do you think, then, that a poet is better able to write translations than ascholar?NIMS: Absolutely! A scholar who’s only a scholar and not a poet cannot possibly do agood translation of poetry. He can do a great literal translation or write a greatessay on it, but unless he has the kind of way with words that poets have, or aresupposed to have, this is not going to get into English. It's going to sound iike it’swritten by a scholar. CLR: Is it only an exercise?NIMS: It may not be. No, it may turn into a translation so good you think that you'dlike to publish it.CLR: Like Robert Lowell?NIMS: Well, maybe, but he does mostly what he calls imitations, which means he tookoff quite freely from an original. I think, he takes off too freely and he just turnseverybody into Robert Lowell. It’s a good exercise — that’s what you were askingme?CLR: Yes. Do you think it’s a major exercise, one that every, or most, poets shouldmaster?NIMS: I don’t think you can tell a young poet what he ought to do. I guess Pound did,again and again and again; but you can’t say to someone to do exercises intranslation if that person doesn’t know anything about the other language. And ldidn’t mean a translator doesn’t have to know the original. I think you should know itvery well, and that means a whole lot of research, and it means looking at theeditions with lots of notes, and it means, ideally, talking to a native. If you’re goingto translate a Spanish poem, the best thing you can do is just sit down with a nativespeaker and ask not only “what does this word mean?”, but “when would you use itin real life? Is it a rare word or a colloquialism?”, and you’ll often find out the wordsyou’ve been translating have a meaning that the dictionary does not tell. I remembertranslating a Spanish poem, and there were the words “la luna”. That means “themoon”, I knew that. But what I didn’t know is, it also means a round mirror, andthat’s what the poet happened to mean in this poem. Any Spaniard would haveknown that right away from the way it was used. Or we might think “Oh, he means around mirror — he’s being so poetic”, but he’s not being poetic: it’s a commonexpression for that. So, unless you’re a native speaker you really need one. Ofcourse, it’s hard to find native speakers of ancient Greek.CLR: Could you reflect on the changes Poetry magazine has gone through in itshistory?NIMS: No.CLR: No?NIMS: No, I honestly couldn’t, because I haven’t followed it that carefully. NextOctober is going to be our seventieth anniversary. It’s the oldest magazine ofits sort in the world, and it’s amazing it’s gone on, never missing an issue, andin continual financial troubles all that time. Honestly, I’m not familiar with thoseseventy years. I’ve been on the staff now and then in some of the years, but Ireally couldn't sum up the history.CLR: What changes have you brought about since you took over the editorship fromDaryl Hine?NIMS: I don’t know. When I came in, I just started picking out what seemed to me tobe good poems, nothing else. That’s really the only principle I had: what seemed tome good poems. I don’t know if they were different from what Daryl thought weregood poems. I guess any two editors will differ in this; but I didn’t try to have apolicy, or anything like that. I was very pleased when lately we got a letter fromsomeone saying: “Nowadays there’s no such thing as a Poetry magazine poem: youseem to do all kinds of things”. And I hope I do.CLR: Has Poetry always been that way?NIMS: Well that might only hold for the years I’ve been the editor. I don’t thinkanything’s been brought about. It is what’s happening now. I think in the past theeditors have been open to more than one kind of poetry. I think they have. I supposeit’s had its good years and its bad years.CLR: What kind of poetry do you like to print?CLR: How important are translations for students? In other words, how important isthe discipline of writing translations to an aspiring poet? Is it something thatshould be practiced, or mastered, or forgotten about?NIMS: A lot of poets have felt it’s a very good exercise. Ezra Pound once said:“everybody ought to translate” — what did he say? — “seventy lines a day”.Whatever he said was too much, but he said every poet ought to translate as anexercise, and a great many poets today have translated. You can't always sit downand write your own poem; I mean, nobody writes that many poems in a lifetime, but ifyou want to keep your hand in and keep writing, you can always take a great poemin another language and try to turn it into English, and it’s a wonderful exercise.John Bruce Yeh, clarinetAlbert Igolnikov, violinDavid C .ATE.S, pianoPetf.r Jaffe, violaBeethoven: Violin Sonata #5 op. 2-t “Spring"Brahms: Sonata for clarinet J- piano in E flat op. 120#2Mozart: Trio for clarinet, viola & piano KJ98Debussy: Premiere Rhapsodic pour clannette et pianoTHURSDAY, JUNE 10 — 8:00 P.M.MANDEL HALL5706 S l mvrrsin Avenue • («enetal Admission $5 00 — Sludenis $2 50sponsored bs ihe department of mustt Itrkets available- at box offkr 962-7300 NIMS: I think there are chiefly two things we are trying to do. One is: to print the bestpoems by the best poets. Like, we’re glad to have a poem by Ashbery or Ammons, orby James Wright before he died. The other thing is, and this is maybe more fun andmore exciting: to publish poets who have never been in the magazine before. We doquite a bit of that; every year we have one first appearance issue, but in nearlyevery issue there are several poets who have never been in the magazine before,and that is what is the most fun in reading manuscripts: to realize here is a reallygood poem by somebody I never heard of before. And occasionally we will get apoem from someone who has never published a poem anywhere before, and theirpoem is good. Those are the two things I like to do, and there's a whole class of poets— this is one of the touchiest points, I guess — hundreds and hundreds of poets, whoare not among the very best of our time but who publish all over the place, in all ofHYDE PARK UNION CHURCH5600 S.

And these are the poets who keepgetting mad at me because I really don’t want them. They’re no fun to have in Poetry,they’re everywhere else, and they’re not especially individual. They’ve got goodnames, they don't need any help from our magazine, and I'd rather stick to these twosort of extremes, just the very best people, and new poets. That’s the way I see it.Maybe I’m fooling myself.CLR: How do you feel about the Black Mountain poets? How do you think they’veaffected contemporary poetry?NIMS: I don’t know. No comment, I guess. Well, let me see. I like Robert Creeley. Myimpression is that Black Mountain has been terribly overrated, and I’m not awarethat there are many places anymore where the Black Mountain poets, except maybeCreeley, are taken very seriously. It seems to me they’ve become sort of the academicpoets of our time. Lots of teachers like the Black Mountain poets, but not many youngpoets that I know read them or really care about them. That always happens, I think,with poets: a group of new poets comes along and makes a certain impression, andtwenty years later these are the ones the college professors discover and theybecome kind of installed.CLR: Under Daryl Hine’s editorship, such poets as Ed Dorn, Robert Creeley, RobertDuncan, Denise Levertov, Charles Tomlinson, Thom Gunn, and Adrienne Richstopped publishing in Poetry. Do these poets fit the tone of Poetry magazinetoday, and would you like to see them resume publishing in Poetry?NIMS: Well first of all, I don’t know the historical facts well enough to know that theyever had published in Poetry and then stopped.CLR: Yes, they did.NIMS: Some of them I like very much. Some of the names that you named seem to meto be over-admired and not really very good. There are a lot of poets that are reallypersonalities; they’re really very active on the reading schedule and seem torepresent something kind of free and wild and new, or did thirty years ago maybe,and they're still sort of coasting on their reputation. I’m not terribly interested inthem. In other words, I think there are a number of big names in contemporarypoetry, and this has been true of poets in every age, who are not really very goodand who get along partly because they look just great on the reading circuit, they’recolorful, or something of that sort, or they espouse the right causes in their time.Robert Creeley I admire very much, and I put him in an anthology I did lately, and Ithink we’re on very good terms. Of the group you mentioned, he seems to me one ofthe best.CLR: He and Thom Gunn. . . CLR: How do you decide what books to review in the magazine? And how do youdecide on the reviewer for the books?NIMS: Reviewing is really an awful problem. We haven’t covered all the books that Iknow we ought to, and it’s partly space, and partly because the only way we could dothat would be to have the kind of short reviews that some magazines have; we havestarted to do that. We’re going to do that this summer and fall: we’ve really got tochange our reviewing policy sothat maybe we have a review of the two or three best books of the month — a longerreview — then shorter notices. We only have twelve reviews a year, one an issue, andthere is no way to cover all of the books that ought to be reviewed. How do wedecide which seem to be the most important books? An awful lot get missed, I knowit, and I wish we could do something about our reviewing. We just don’t have muchroom for it. How do we decide on reviewers? We pick those we think write well. It’s aterribly tricky business. Since I came, nearly five years ago, I’ll bet we've assignedfifteen reviews, maybe group reviews of five, six, seven books, that some reviewersaid he’d just love to do, then he didn’t do them. They get a grant, they go to Europe,or they're just never heard from again. They take the books and disappear. It’samazing how often that happens. A couple of times lately very well-known poetshave written us and said they would very much like to review a book of translations.We send it to them and we never hear from them. We just can’t guarantee reviews.It’s a weakness in the magazine, partly because of our size. And it’s a strangebusiness, too; if someone writes in and says “I’d very much like to review this book,’’it could mean he either wants to write a blurb because this is a friend of his, or this issomeone he’s been laying for, and here’s his chance. That happens. To get objectivereviews that are free of the politics of that world is very difficult.CLR: When you talk about the fact that the magazine is only so big, and you onlyhave so much room, do you have any interest or plans to do something about it?Maybe add to the size of the magazine, or publish more often? Perhaps expandon your book review section — any major changes like that?NIMS: We have a very good staff of a couple of ladies who have been there for a longtime, and Joe Parisi, who's the associate editor, and they do almost all of thepractical things — they’re very good at that — like the size of the magazine. I guessit's sixty-four pages every month, and there are reasons it has to stay that, which arenot too clear to me: financial reasons, and apparently you can’t just add a couple ofpages. So, I guess we’re stuck with that sixty-four pages a month, of which some isindex, and notes on contributors, and maybe news notes, and that leaves maybe tenpages for reviewing every month. But no, there are no plans I know of to increase thesize of the magazine or bring it out more often. We have a financial problem bringingit out at that size that often.CLR: How do you fund the magazine?NIMS: Thom Gunn doesn’t seem to fit in with that group you mentioned. When youread off that list, he seemed to me the one that doesn’t really belong there, becausehe was certainly a very formal poet and never anything like a beatnik. That doesn’thold of that other group, either, but I was surprised you mentioned him.CLR: Have you any interest in making Poetry more international in scope, or do youwant to keep it American?NIMS: We’d be happy to have poems by English poets. We don’t get a lot ofsubmissions from them. We have had a number of English poets; we gladly publishedthem when we got them. International — here you get into the problem of translation.We’ve had two or three translation issues. I guess it was last November we had awhole group of contemporary Greek poets translated, and we’ve done that two orthree times. We did a whole group translated by Lisel Mueller. She is the idealtranslator, of course, because she was born in Germany and spent her childhoodthere. She has a real knowledge of German, and is a really good poet in English. I’mdelighted to get translations from her, because her translation give a sense of whatthe original poems were like. But it’s hard to get good translations, and no, we don’tpublish a lot of them. The question is, do we want to run the originals too? Becausethe poetry really is in the original, not in the English translation. Still, if we ever getany really great translations we’re happy to use them.CLR: Have you made any attempts to bring the poets we mentioned back into themagazine? Have you solicited any poetry from them?NIMS: I did when I first came. I wrote a whole lot of letters to people. I haven’t had todo that lately, because we get too much. Right now we have a backlog of close to ninemonths, and that is too much. When we tell people we can’t take a poem becausewe're overstocked, we really mean it. I don’t know how that happened. If we starttaking all the good poems, pretty soon it'll be two years after acceptance beforethey’re published. What I really have to do right now is send back a whole lot ofreally good poems that in another time we would have taken, just because of ourspace and the number that come in. Even at best, we can accept about one poem out ofevery three hundred sent in. Those are very bad odds.■ —Commencement SpecialYour Our-of-Town Guests CanNow Take Advantage of Our SpecialCOMMENCEMENT RATE PACKAGE1500single 4*°°I clouFor reservations, please phoneThe Blackstone HotelMichigan Ave. at Balbo(312)427-4300■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ NIMS: With the kindness of friends and grants. It does not support itself with moneythat comes in from subscriptions and advertising. We couldn't last two months, Isuppose, on that. We take a big loss — I think if individuals subscribe, it barelycovers the cost of the magazine — so we have to try to find grants. The ModernPoetry Association is a group of people who give thirty-five dollars or more a year,and some people give more than that, so what makes up the deficit is either help fromgrants — and sometimes we get practically none — or from individual donors. Once ayear we have some kind of fund-raising event: a poetry reading, or a dinner that israther expensive to go to. Last year we had to cut what we pay poets. We’d beenpaying a dollar a line, which is pretty good because some poetry magazines don’t payanything — most of them don’t, I suppose — we'd been paying a dollar a line but wehad to cut it to fifty cents. There just wasn’t enough money. Then we had a bigfinancial drive, trying to get more members of the Modern Poetry Association, andapplying for various grants, and we’re able now to go back to a dollar a line.CLR: How does Poetry magazine differ from, or compete with, other poetrymagazines?NIMS: We come out every month. That's a big difference. It means we have to getalmost fifty pages of poetry every month. It is just possible there are not that manypages of good poetry written in the United States. I think we do pretty well; I reallylike the poems that we publish, but anyone would agree that there are not sixhundred pages of great poetry in this country in a year. Of course there are not. If amagazine is, say, a quarterly, it doesn’t have to publish as much as we do. andtheoretically its standards could be higher. Theoretically. I don’t think they are, but itcould happen. But I don’t think that way — “how are we different from othermagazines’’ — it’s as if, as people used to say, “we re doing our own thing", and sowe are too busy worrying about running our own magazine to spend time evaluatinganyone else.CLR: Finally, do you have any advice to younger poets?NIMS: Just the kind of things I've said already. Henry James said: “Be one of those onwhom nothing is lost’’; Rodin said: “Toujours travaillez". All I can say is, follow theiradvice, and read all the good poets, and write. Read, write, and keep living.LOOKING FOR A REALLY DIFFERENTGRADUATION PRESENT?How About An Oriental Prayer Rug?GRADUATION WEEKEND SALEAll Prayer Rugs *250(Over $100 off our already low prices)FOR APPOINTMENT CALL DAVID BRADLEY AT 288-0524(SAVE THIS AD FOR REFERENCE)The Chicago Literary Review. June 4, 1982—23Not only was my own life a mess, but everyone I knew was suddenly introuble. Tiflin had gotten kicked out of medical school for ripping off Gray’sAnatomy from the bookstore, and Ike had quit his job moving furniture andwas spending his time getting high and watching soap operas. I’d heard thatJessica had a nervous breakdown up in Madison and had gone back to livewith her parents in Downers Grove.Against this backdrop of anxiety occurred the Weekend of Misery. OnSunday the sun might as well never have risen; the temperature variedfrom minus ten to a record-breaking twenty-five below. The pipes in ourbuilding burst like water balloons thrown at a brick wall, leaving us withoutheat or water. The toilet developed a thin crust of ice and the kitty’s water"bowl froze solid. We called the janitor, who told us he had too manybuildings to take care of and anyway it was a problem for “the boilerman.”I pulled my blankets off my bed and wrapped them around myself as tightas a corn husk around a tamale. I made mincing little steps to the couch andtried to watch the Superbowl. My breath was as thick and blue as cigarsmoke. I wore two pairs each of cotton and wool socks but I couldn’t keepmy feet warm. My nose started to run so I had to unravel myself and dashthrough the raw freezing cold to the bathroom to get some toilet paper.Finally l got Tiflin’s l.D. card and went to the gym to take a long, hotshower. Then I went to the library and fell asleep looking at cartoons in lastNot only was my own life a mess, buteveryone I knew was suddenly in trouble...year’s New Yorkers. At 10:00 the closing bell woke me up. I used Titlin’sblacklisted l.D. to check out a pictorial history o the Second World War. I puton my sweater, windbreaker, other sweater, and down jacket, which hadtiny feathers breaking out of the edges of the rips I had patched withmasking tape. The air over the lake was so cold that milky steam spurtedup through fissures that ran between ice floes. I tell you it looked like afrozen hell.Sunday night — all across the neighborhood diners, theaters and barswere closing, forcing my roommates out of the warm hideouts in which theyhad been ensconced all day like bedbugs in a flophouse (except for Sue Ann,who was at her boyfriend Rick’s place). No one could sleep, and I got homejust in time to get in on a game of Monopoly.“I’ll take the battleship,” said Ghali, who was wrapped in a yellowblanket, the electric cord of which stretched halfway across the dining room.“You were the battleship last time,” said Ike, his words emerging incloudy blue spurts. “I get to be the battleship.”“Whether or not a player had a token in a previous game has no bearingon what token he may use later,” said Ghali, pushing his spectacles back uphis nose. “Since there is no advantage incumbent upon which token a playeruses, the rules don’t even address the issue. Why don’t we let the playerwho goes first choose his token?”Ike got to be the battleship. Tiflin was the shoe and I was the doggie.Ghali, who didn’t really care but always argued points of constitutionality,was the howitzer.I kept landing in jail and getting assessed for street repairs and crap likethat while everyone else was snapping up property. Still, when the dustsettled, no one had a monopoly and we all had to deal. I got stuck with thelight blues Tiflin got Boardwalk and Parkplace but had no money to build.Ghali, with his usual finesse in matters commercial, nabbed the yellows andimmediately put three houses on each. Sure enough, Ike came tearingaround the Free Parking corner on doubles and on his next role landed onMarvin Gardens. “Let me see,” said Ghali, adjusting his glasses in asuddenly irritating way, “You owe me eight hundred and fifty dollars. I’lltake off a hundred and fifty for your purples, mortgaged.”“Your mother,” said Ike. He mortgaged his property and awkwardlycounted his cash in ski-mittened hands. He didn’t have enough. We allwatched him as he pulled yellow c-notes out of the bank.“What are you doing?” asked Ghali.“I’m getting the money to pay you rent, jerk.”“But you can’t simply take money from the bank,” observed Ghali in hisquaint Oxford-Pakistani inflection.“Don’t wet your pants. I’m going to write an IOU.”Ghali looked at us for support and giggled. “That’s absurd. With unlimited credit no one would ever lose.”“What are you worried about? You’re going to get your fucking bread.”Ike knew he was wrong but he didn’t want to give in. I went to the kitchen,taking orders for beer, which was being kept in the refrigerator to keep itfrom freezing. Ghali unplugged his blanket and went to his room for somehash.Some one was knocking hard and continuously on the front door. Thejanitor! Tiflin went up front and the rest of us sat around the table drinkingbeer and smoking Ghali’s blend of pot and hash. “Rather good, wouldn’t yousay?” asked Ghali. The smoke warmed my chest, and the warmth spread tomy gut and limbs and even my face felt like it was glowing with a heatradiating from the pit of my stomach outward. “You can’t steal money fromthe bank,” I told Ike.Someone was shouting at Tiflin so I went to the living room, holding ajoint. There was this huge black guy with big puffy cheeks and a voice likemolten lead. He was wearing a thin windbreaker but didn’t seem aware ofthe cold. He had a big fleshy scar that started under his left eye and endedat the corner of his mouth. When he talked it got longer and shorter. “I ainthere to play games,” he was saying. “Them bikes I gave you was worthtwice what you give me. I want forty dollars now, brother, or you bettermake a reservation at the emergency room.” I chuckled. This guy was a realtrip. He saw me and said, “And I’ll take care of you partner, too.”Wow. I was suddenly in a different world. Tiflin said. “Cool. I’ll get yourmoney.” He went to his room, which was packed with a splendid variety ofstolen bicycles. I was alone with the thief. “Gimme here that J,” he said. Theroach fell to the floor as I tried to pass it from my gloved hands to his hugebare fingers, shedding sparks like a little comet. “Sorry,” I said, picking itup. In the kitchen Ghali and Ike were obviously high, discussing Seattle. Ihoped Tiflin would just get the money and the man would just leave. I couldsee Tiflin coming out of his room down the hall. “Holy Shit,” l said.The man didn’t pick up on my exclamation right away. Tiflin, almost assmall as Ghali, was holding a real gun. It was an absurdly large revolver,and its long barrel reached halfway between Tiflin’s knee and foot. “Look,”he said, keeping it pointed at the floor, “we agreed on a price for thosebikes and I paid you. Now please leave.” The man didn’t look surprised orimpressed, but he did leave, snarling, “I’ll be back, and I’ll take care ofyour ass.”“Holy Shit, Tifiin!” I said.“I’ve got a nice Raleigh three-speed in there. I’ll give you a break on it ifyou want it.”“Jesus!”Tiflin exhaled and said, “Don’t worry. He knows he’s wrong and he won’tcome back. He just has to act big. Anyway it’s not loaded. You finish thatjoint0”“Hey Tiflin,” shouted Ike. “Get your butt in here. It’s your turn.” But Ike,who was bankrupt anyway, was the only one who wanted to keep playing.“You can’t steal money from the bank,’’I told Ike...’’Ghali was declared the winner and he and Tiflin started a game of Scrabble.Ike and I went out on the back porch.Outside it was beautiful and macabre. Against the clouds, which reflectedthe orange of the sodium vapor lights, the trees were traced in white to thetips of the finest twigs. Miserable looking humans were walking their dogs.I tried to imagine what the snow righht below would look in the daylight;the back porch had been our outhouse since the water had stopped.I felt like crying. I had just been scared half to death and I was tired ofbeing cold. I was coming down off my high and the first insistent probes of amajor headache were squeezing my head. “I can’t take any more, Ike,” Isaid. “I can’t.” ike was about to reply but the phone rang and he wentinside.It was good old Sue Ann. She had done the impossible: she had convincedboth Rick and his roommate to let our raggedy selves come over and crashin their warm, warm place. Our troubles were over. We even took the kittyalong. We found her asleep on the shelf above the stove, the burners ofwhich had been turned up full throttle.—Steve EatonTHE LIGHT BLUES24—The Chicago Literary Review, June 4, 1982SPACEStudio Apartment, Hild Realty Group 955 1200Looking for housing?
