He is one I have passed down to my daughter and grandchildren. His poen 'Flowers For Hitler' is a favorite and I reread it often. It is not obscure or clouded over very simple and direct.
I'm a woman, a Witch, a mother, a grandmother, an eco-feminist, a gardener, a reader, a writer, and a priestess of the Great Mother Earth. Hecate appears in the
Homeric Ode to Demeter, which tells of Hades who caught Persophone
"up reluctant on his golden car and bare her away lamenting. . . . But no one, either of the deathless gods or of mortal men, heard her voice, nor yet the olive-trees bearing rich fruit: only tenderhearted Hecate, bright-coiffed, the daughter of Persaeus, heard the girl from her cave . . . ."

Thanks for the tip, Hecate. And gorgeous hellebores down below.
Thank you for this. It was wonderful. I saw him 40 years ago. He just gets better and better.
