Martin Buber
Philosopher
Pronouns: I, thou
A nod to Kierkegaard and Walker Percy: existentialist tomfoolery, political satire, literary homage, word mongering, a year-round summer reading club, Dylanesque music bits, apocalyptic marianism, poetry, fiction, meta-porn, a prisoner work-release program.

Ranks with the best of Pound.
Symbolodic or, What’s a Metaphor For?
Let the Blue Dollar’s wing
Free both symbol and thing
From birdlime’s I and It.
And let a Seaburg sing
What the Seabird can bring
To help the self admit.
I think when I started to look at the purple book not so long ago – has it been nicked or is it packed away – I thought it sounded more right wing than one would imagine from what I thought was a Kantian distinction between thou and it, I thought it was. I didn’t realise I had packed mine away but maybe I have. Thou I suppose is familiar and disrespectful.
I may have thought it too purple for the bookshelves in the small living room.
