    I love Cummings but I don't get Faulkner. I tried. I really tried.

    I used to be hard on myself when I didn’t like or get one of the classics but everything is just not for everyone. Faulkner was a slog. As I Lay Dying may have been one of the few HS English books I actually didn’t read — and i was very condescending toward the Cliff’s Notes kids.

    And rarely do I just think to myself, Imma read a poem.


    Weird that future literature may include tiktok videos and memes.

    I'm sure I did just to impress girls. It didn't work, but I'm sure that was why. It's why I did everything else.

    Done with my taxes...well, just waiting for one more document, but I'm 99% what it will show.
