A Final Note.   For those of you for whom it may be of interest, there remains a real need for reviews of these & other books of mine, particularly for a discussion of the premeditated contemporaneity of Barbaric Vast & Wild and its relation to other books in the project that began for me with Technicians of the Sacred and has continued through Poems for the Millennium.  I am also open to readings like those listed here in other areas of the country.
