The Salvation Shuffle

I Wrote Salvation Shuffle Around 1978-9 Mostly In Portland Oregon. A Little Up In Seattle Washington. It Is The Finale Of A Set Of Four Books Of Poetry (Pages) That I Wrote In Oregon During My Undergraduate Years And Shortly Thereafter. My Explorations Of Eastern Religions Wells Up And Then Fades Away Over The Course Of The Set Of Books. Salvation Shuffle Also Exhausts My Poetry. Book Four Is Actually The End Of The Whole Phenomenon. Since About 1980 I Only Can Write Prose. Many Famous People Have Perished Trying Too Hard To Break On Through To The Other Side. I Count My Blessings.
