    • Thank you, Elke. It’s not often that I speak of my privacy and I couldn’t care less how some perceive me. I am what I am, hitched to a higher being.

      • It was an honor. Your writings reveal a subtle person with a great sense of humor and mastership of metaphors and imagery. In this interview you add your integrity and principled side. Again, thank you very much!

    • I have two books by David McCullough I’m reading now so I’m glad to see he said that. I’ve been a musician for over fifty years and started when I was very young. If I couldn’t write (which for the most part I can’t anyway lol) I’d be hitting a drum or playing guitar.

      You did a good interview here, Elke. Nice job.

      • Thank you very much for reading and commenting, Tim! Your musical career sounds very interesting, especially because my own experience in music is pretty poor, besides torturing the violin for some years. Watch out! Maybe you’re the next one i’ll torment with questions…

    • It’s interesting to get a glimpse of the authors behind their words. And, perhaps we find a few things in common that we didn’t predict prior, like their personal beliefs, even.
      After all, we are not generic souls hashing out the same results. Diversity is strength, even when the tastes are not always agreeable.
      Good job, Sappho!

      • Thank you so much, dear Styx, i agree to you absolutely. It’s always enriching to get to know other people and their opinions and beliefs. Open mindedness and tolerance are values we can cultivate by experience.

    • Amazing interview, Elke. Adagio is a great writer it was interesting to learn more about him. Appreciate you both.

    • I like that he was being interviewed instead of the other way around. Good job

    • Hoi hoi chère S., and chèr A.,
      This is the 4th time I came back to the scene of the Rhyme, to be submerged in this ocean of beauty.
      I’m no hero with alcohol, so I Raise my glass of chilled freshly squeezed orange juice.

      Cheers to the interviewer; cheers to the interviewee!

      This one is a solid proof of what Roger McGough said:
      Keep it simple
      Let’s not take ourselves too seriously
      And (this one I love the best):
      All this talent is fine, but bring your empathy

      Alive and gigging – as far as I know he still performs – 88 years old.

      This interview floored me with a deeply felt (or feld) human touch questioning. As well as simple but bulls eye answers.
      Raise the flag and sound the trumpet.
      I wave extra warmly to Sappho and to Atticus
