It may be of interest to note that in a recent biography of Alister
Crowley Ezra Pound is mentioned in passing. It seems that Ezra thought
Crowley was crazy. So it appears that the spectrum may be even wider than
some on this list have suspected.
Here are some further statements for arguments either way. I must be as
crazy as Pound. I appreciate each of them; perhaps there is an irony to
vision. Is anyone else hovering up here above current events? (Not that I
believe anyone ever ascended to Heaven from this rock althought we don't
hold those "crazy" who think so.)
