INFORMATION
    Morphine addiction is central to understanding the work of Roger Gilbert-Lecomte. This is not a slight, not hardly; the stamina to reside in adjacence is a poet’s power, and morphine, as with other substances, is a great creator of difference. The addict poet, for a time, can be like Mercury — shuttling between the world of the living and that of the dead — a fortuitous personage for the act of description.

At the bottom of the green
Waters of death

The bubble swells
Where the golden dwarf sleeps

He will wake up
One day shouting fire
