I don't know why but I post this poem by Robert Lowell: Homecoming by Robert Lowell What was is . . . since 1930; the boys in my old gang are senior partners. They start up bald like baby birds to embrace retirement. At the altar of surrender, I met you in the hour of credulity. How your misfortune came out clearly to us at twenty. At the gingerbread casino, how innocent the nights we made it on our Vesuvio martinis with no vermouth but vodka to sweeten the dry gin-- the lash across my face that night we adored . . . soon every night and all, when your sweet, amorous repetition changed. Fertility is not to the forward, or beauty to the precipitous-- things gone wrong clothe summer with gold leaf. Sometimes I catch my mind circling for you with glazed eye-- my lost love hunting your lost face. Summer to summer, the poplars sere in the glare-- it's a town for the young, they break themselves against the surf. No dog knows my smell. Suspect arrives in UK from Zambia From correspondents in London August 08, 2005 From: Agence France-Presse HAROON Aswat, a Briton arrested in Zambia two weeks ago reportedly wanted in connection with last month's deadly bomb attacks in London, arrived in Britain on Sunday after being deported from Lusaka, a Foreign Office official said. "I can confirm that he has arrived in Britain, but it's now a matter for the Home Office," said the official. According to the BBC, Aswat arrived at a Royal Air Force base in Northolt, west of London. Aswat, 31, has been named in US and British media reports as the alleged mastermind behind the July 7 blasts that killed 56 people including four suicide bombers, but British police have not confirmed that he is wanted in connection with the attacks. Aswat was deported from Zambia early on Sunday, leaving Lusaka international airport on a chartered plane to Britain. US authorities have also reportedly sought to question Aswat over alleged attempts to set up a terrorist training camp in Bly, Oregon. Advertisement: US media said on July 22, the day after four abortive attacks on London's transport system, that US police and intelligence agencies were taking part in the hunt for Aswat. They said that the four suicide bombers behind the July 7 attacks had made about 20 calls to him on his mobile telephone. Aswat, who spent time in South Africa and Botswana before entering Zambia on July 6, had been on a watch list of Western intelligence agencies who tipped off Zambian authorities.
