By David Gottfried I have not given you a picture that might “go with” what I have written. If you must look at a picture, look at Salvador Dali’s “The Persistence of Memory.” The poem refers to “The Biltmore.” If I recall correctly, that was a hotel where important Jews were supposed to gather, during World War Two, to plan a response to the Holocaust. Many grey eminences wrote grey and ponderous and impotent tracts, almost as bloodless and lifeless as the bodies of the victims of the Nazi genocide.
