    Just for the record, I have never ceased (since I was in my late teens) to celebrate Knott's unique and inimitable genius–people who now believe they are discovering this strange obscure great poet do–I cannot comprehend any other explanation–either because like all young people they live in the hallucination that nothing existed on this earth before their birth, or, if they are older,

    I doubt there is anyone who could, although there is one poet who has said that there could not have been a Franz Wright without there first being a Bill Knott.<br /><br />My apologies about the memory lapse.
