a hog in the fog

well, i'm back, hood over my head, back from the market, i come to this blog like a hog in a fog, a bog dog, a crow in the snow, an ant in a pant, a cat who got fat, i am here, fear, tear, smear, clear, dear, sheer boredom has me here, sheer inertia, sheer stockings, a gear in reverse, avoiding the hearse, i am here, looking, cooking, bearly that, barely that, naked, a snake on the take, a fake, i have eaten too much cake, for the sake of indolence, depression, regression, i am here lost in the genes, in the genies, the genius, the jeans, the beans, i am here for want, for grant, for sand and an idle hand

  1. dear richard, this is a far cry from the promise you had a thousand years ago in marius bewley's class (footnote: marius bewley, renouned editor of the Hudson Review), in maurice charney's class (ftnt: renouned shakespeare scholar: :Mr. Quatrone, you do realize that you have a strong understanding of English literary history), Seymour Feldman's class (ftnt: great hebraic scholar, now professor of philosophy who taught me moses maimonides, avveroes, and thomas), and so on, all the classes, including Richard Poirier (ftnt: editor of Partisan Review, later founding editor of Raritan Review, a slick cat, drinking buddy of Norman Mailer), all of those guys, richard you had promise and this blog entry sucks!
