I love this.

p.s. - I really want to talk to you one o' these days. Y'know, cyber-talk.

Sure. You know, it's funny, because I can't stop talking to my analog friends about poetry (the whole ball of twine, you know?) and I think some of them are just about ready to disown me. "Shut the fuck up, Marcus. Can't we talk about something else?"

PS - where in Canada is your conference?

Toronto. Though I sincerely doubt it will happen. My department won't give me enough to cover transport costs and I certainly don't have the money myself. The closest I'll be to you is in the summer when I go home for about two months or so.

Toronto is a wierd city - a city without a soul - built in a vommitous panic, in the first half of the 1900s. Think of how a (vegan?) cookie flattens out when you cook it. It's more than two from one end to the other, at least from the bypass, with endless, endless suburbs. I grew up an hour SW of Toronto. Although I'm sure the conference would have been fascinating, Toronto is, as they say, nothing to write home about.

The conference was on queer globalities and archival bodies. I was going to discuss James's homosexual 'detective' story The Sacred Fount.
