T. Bayer, writing in TLS
(Teddies' Literary
Supplement),
recently described his epic poem
Crossing the Bear
as
"...bearing down on your senses
like a grizzly in the fog".
(Don't ask me what he meant.)
When challenged
to find a rhyme for "Teddy",
Aleksandr eschewed the obvious
"ready" or "steady",
and immediately went for "heady".
Looking at Aleksandr's photo,
my Russian friends may well guess
which famous poet
he models himself on :)
Aleksandr was adopted by the very first person who saw him.
