"On May 28, 1997, surgeons at Colorado University Hospital in Denver determined that poet Ed Dorn (photo, left) was suffering from a nonresectable (inoperable) adenosarcoma of the pancreas, stage II/III (locally advanced). Dorn had once written that he preferred the warrior figure Hector to the victim figure Christ: 'Hector is not resurrectable. He lives in the manor of the mind and stands for unalienated beauty.'”
