Great Regulars: It is this impulse to draw things together,

to at least glimpse even if not to see things whole, that makes these poems so memorable and so moving ("I think of those I loved and saw to die . . . I brushed them off,/those valorous, in my unseemly haste/of greedy living, and now must learn from them.").

from Charles Bainbridge: The Guardian: Endpoint and Other Poems by John Updike and Capillarity by Arto Vaun
