Hemi,Murasaki, Creationists


When I stayed those three months at Macdonald Crescent
In the house of Lazarus, three tribes were living

In each of the stories - on the ground floor, the drunks
Who came there when the white lodge burnt down

Above them, the boobheads; and scattered between the first
And second story, the students who hoped to crack

The rock of education. The drunks are my own tribe.
One Sunday, the pubs being shut, they held a parliament

In the big front room - Lofty with his walking stick,
Phil the weeper, Taffy who never spoke much,

And one or two others - in conclave they sat, like granite columns
Their necks, like Tritons their faces,
Like tree-roots their bodies. Sober as Rhadamanthus
They judged the town and found it had already been judged

verse 27 of Autumn Testament
Hemi Baxter 1972
the last volume he prepared for the press.
(Macdonald Crescent I guess is the one near Aro St Wellington, not as famous as his residence in Boyle Cres Auckland)

She would be the first to run out and greet him when he came home, and she would climb on his lap, and they would talk happily together, without the least constraint or embarrassment. He was delighted with her. A clever and watchful woman can create all manner of difficulties. A man must always be on his guard, and jealousy can have the most unwelcome consequences. Murasaki was the perfect companion, a toy for him to play with. He could not have been so free and uninhibited with a daughter of his own. There are restraints upon paternal intimacy. Yes he had come upon a remarkable little treasure.

Chap 5 The Tale of Genji CE998 Murasaki Shikibu
The world's first novel
In light of Michael Jacksons trial. On ten year olds
