@RichardMcCoy Bob is in Cambridge, stuck in his head, stuck in his cups, stuck back in '47 in what he thinks was his best work.

@robertlowell I can recommend a good analyst in Cambridge.

@frank_ohara You're welcome down in Brazil, dear. Don't want too long.

[ElizabethBishop @ElizabethBishop]

@frank_ohara That Bob! He's a good egg. These days we meet only by letter. It's the only way to make sure he keeps his hands to himself.

[ElizabethBishop @ElizabethBishop]

@frank_ohara I may be back soon after all. Confidentially, things with Lota have grown complicated. . .

[ElizabethBishop @ElizabethBishop]

Think of the long trip home. Should we have stayed at home and thought of here?

It's evident the art of losing's not so hard to master though it may look like (Write it!) a disaster.

[ElizabethBishop @ElizabethBishop]

Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture I love) I shan't have lied.

The art of losing isn't hard to master.
