on staying under the sun

roger has written and published another non-fiction piece.  a memoir.  and it is beautiful and tender, the kind that makes you be on a boat watching the glowing dusk and white waves.  he mentions reading as a child The Little Prince, the "old" grownups always needing explanations; and how now he himself is on his way to needing those.  i sent roger a post telling how beautiful his new published work and how i wish i have his bravery to step into the light, under the sun, for the world to see.

roger says he walks around naked.  sunburnt.  
i say that is why i write poetry.
