I don’t know who decided that “cellar door” was the most beautiful phrase in the English language, but I have to say that I don’t agree. Not even a little bit. I find it to be a somewhat ugly, clumsy phrase, with little lyrical quality and, visually, with too much slant to the right. I think about these sorts of things too much, I agree.
Every once in a while, I write a combination of words with which I become quite pleased, and, as I glance about the room, I silently preen for a few moments before I move on with my writing. No one ever notices, sure, but little literaku moments such as these sometimes make my whole day worthwhile.
Just now in an essay on censorship in Ancien Regime France, I wrote: curtailing scurrilous printing. You can leave the printing out, it’s the combination of curtailing and scurrilous that I quite like, and that will make today worthwhile.
Assuming I finish this paper soon.

two weeks
it’s like a whisper
it’s less than
it may never come
it certainly can’t arrive soon enough
two weeks
and this world forgotten
this world of the grind
of hybrid solutions to indelible problems
of trying to bury myself between the lines
two weeks
for two weeks i will
rise above this endlessness
i will learn again
to speak without whispering

Maybe even overwhelmed. There is, without doubt, a lot of whelm going on over here. Fuck you, whelm.
Seriously, I don’t know why I keep telling myself that I enjoy school. There must be something wrong with me.
Oh, oh! But concerning much more exciting, interesting, and funny enterprises …
… wait for it …
La Casa Comics is back! With a vengeance! With multiple, confluent vengeances! Theo is responsible for the revitalization, having recently sent me a couple comics out of the blue. But I’m determined to be a contributing member as well.
You know … because maybe I just don’t have enough whelm in my life after all.

Endless winter days;
five reference assignments:
too much for too little.
