Yeah. It's a rather Baudelarian notion, Candice, as in 'The Voyage':
anywhere, but somewhere else.
It's easy to understand me feeling that, in a dump like Leicester, but sad
that it resonates with you too, in that rather beautiful North Carolina.
I guess too one could develop things like Henry Reed's 'Naming of Parts',
y'know, an instant picture of contrast and yearning.
Best
Dave
