Just let Me set here awhile
& let it all soak in —
let Me look at the mesh of the curtain
& remember The Flashes —
let Me hear My Mother-in-law breathing
under a heated blanket
& I will set & tell You
The Story with
no
end
Joanna Gilman Hyde 
I will sit here forever, Joanna, just to listen to you tell the story with no end.
I think, but I’m not sure, that The Story is about to reach its denouement. Keep sitting and thanks for your faith.
This I like very much.
I’m delighted, Ben. As you know, I value your reactions.
