Phil, I know little about WCW's work, but I agree with Judi that this has the look and "feel." To me, it resounds of conflict between art/poetry, its creation, criticism of the same, and differing points of view among critics.

Is abstraction mouthing on the hook?

I see! Is Tony's take correct? By the way, thanks for linking the Hughes poem--it's so evocative.

concrete things are enticed by other concrete things, not abstraction

Oh! Then what does the hook represent? And who cast it?

I see! The only thing missing here is the reader who overburdens a poem with thought--I guess that would be me. 😮
