Dear Patti,

the sweetest little message.

thank you for sharing the evocative story of the photo-booth photograph of Robert- and tonight I’m imagining Sylvia Plath, gazing down as she intently listens to you read….and happy that much more than her memory is being remembered.

That photo of Robert is iconic. Thank you for reading Sylvia Plath and for sharing stories of the Bunker. I wish I could visit the John Giorno exhibition.

Thank you for the reading. I love Sylvia Plath, it’s lovely that Robert bought that book for you so long ago. I thought of Robert yesterday so sad we lost him too early.

We had a special March in London yesterday for a ceasefire in Palestine, all woman speakers from different places and different religions. It was a huge and peaceful, vibrant March and today I’m very tired from a long walk and much emotion. Happy International Women’s Day to everyone 🙏

Probably it's a typical development when s.o. is becoming a wise aged one....🤔😉

Thank you Patti for reading out loud to us. Today I came across a wonderful interview you did on July 1st 2013 in Louisianna. You told the story of the gold lame pants (cowboys wear them for riding horses) that Robert wore to a restaurant and you pulled out your honey jar, and Robert said you were drawing attention to you. I love the humor you both had . . . so precious!

Hello Patti Smith. Thank you for the poem reading. I am curious about the peace sign I see in your posts. It is directly behind you.

Love your 'little messages' - so full of meaning! The poem was dark and lonely like Sylvia's soul. It's raining here and gloomy this Saturday. Stay cozy!
