Yay comments! I have quite a bit to respond to and to add. I think I need to be careful about what parts of what posts are addressed to where. (I make so much sense.) In the meantime:
MonkeyKendra: W. off topic again--this is the weirdest thing:
I have a blister on the roof of my mouth.
just behind the dental ridge. it's so strange.
but of course I'm fascinated and I keep poking it with my tongue.
W: Well, soon you'll get used to it
and poking it won't seem so interesting anymore.
So you'll poke it halfheartedly
maybe twice a week
but it won't be as meaningful as your previous pokings
until, like all bubbles, it bursts and you die alone.
IM poetry...the expression of a generation.
