finnegans wake. page 56, considering calling it quits. anyone ever finished it?
btw i'd recommend anyone read it, even if you only get a couple of pages it;'s fuckin unbelievably masterpieceful. it's too brilliant for human cognition to take in.

vxn, that;s why i don't use poem titles at all. i just either leave it untitled or use the first linel
as for the other discussion: i don't find myself reading my own work as much as i find myself reciting it in my head.
and will, the way i read it is more payinmg attention to themusicality than the meaning. there's something so alluring about the book that im compelled to--maybe because i've always been really good at speaking gibberish made up languages. (me and my friend try to comprehend each other's gibberish when we get really wasted...try it with someone, you'll realize that you can actually hint at what they are trying to say by their inflections and such)

I'm reading 'The Wasp Factory' by Ian Banks for the second time. Incredibly strange book but a great read.  |

The word masterpieceful is quite Joycean. It must have done something to you. |
