📖 "In publishing Futile, Mortal, and Bones I am allowing my Ôpoetic-tapestriesÕ to take their ÔquagmiredÕ visions into the unknown empire of tomorrow; as each page is read, as each page is turned, my Ôpoetry-spunÕ gates will slowly open; as the writer Ernest Hemingway said: 'A man can be destroyed but not defeated.'"
