"Poem Reading With Nadja... ...uhh...Nadja..ah.. before i start...let me first say - this poem is not about you...not one bit...why does it have to be about someone?... who is "You"..."You" could be anybody.."You"...could be Me...just listen to it...remember this comes from a man at sea...at sea..a long time...at sea I am the voice calling; You are the wilderness. I am the burning bush; You are the flaming nest. I am the rushing flood; You are the landless dove. I am the gate to hell; You are its waterless well. well..what do you think?...about you?..NO not about you..who then?...ahh...it's about god..yes about god, "You" is God.........yes i do, i do believe in god....how long?...uh, since before i wrote this poem...."
