#10 - Nella letteratura
Nella letteratura Il nome di Greatbatch compare in una poesia dedicata alla madre, che prende il titolo di: For Wilson Greatbatch's Mother. This man has no name Like wheat fields. He would break himself in two for you, Bread for a stranger. If all you saw Was the wind through wheat fields You would know him. If all you saw was the back of his head. You would see the wind Through winter wheat On a dark night Moving like an invisible hand through his hair. Where were you Before you had a heart, Before you could say Ma. January, I know more about this man Than I have a right to. The lower lip that falls away As if it had nothing much to say says it: It takes knowing nothing, absolutely nothing As in the beginning… darkness…. Over the surface of the deep…. To make a thing, To hear the tick of life Under six feet of snow Where nothing can grow Except Possibility. FONTI: For Wilson Greatbatch's Mother
