Among her numerous poems, she wrote “Museum” in 1962 in a poetry collection referred to as “Salt” as well as “Archaeology” in 1986 in a poetry collection referred to as “The People on the Bridge”. I find her poetry quite inspirational. Maybe I’ll have my friend Michael (not Ashley) set it to music as well as create something on behalf of our Remediated Places project with it. I’ll write as well as request her if I can re-purpose it in this way. To see a copy of “Museum” it is published, legally or illegally here Sun, 24 Aug 2008 19:43:09 -0400 irss11
