He stood tall when many fell to appease the popular arts for the politics of self. Always did he care for the smallest of voices dying to be heard. He gave more to many others and less to the call of his own soul's trials. And not just for poets, but also to mimes, music, and the humanities.

Learning how to paste up the copy in Jack's apartment up over Stone Soup on Cambridge Street. Remember Jack discussing politics, teaching me so much, while going about his work at Goodspeeds Book Shop. Over the years I've admired his deep commitment to social issues and felt guilty at not being so committed myself. <br><br><br />Happy 70th Birthday Jack!
