Poetry. HISTORY AND ITS MAKING / THE MAKING OF HISTORY may be read as some sort of ars poetica. Ross's ars poetica. Well, one's own developing one's specific language and take on language leads to a recognition that we are also made of others' languages and lifetimes. From our past. From our traditions. From others that surround us. A language amounts to collections of lifetimes. Literatures archive such collections, over time.--Christophe Lamiot Enos
