Perhaps we might consider each of these words and marks of punctuation in
turn, rather than submit to their pretended coherence. Thanks, at least,
for the darkly ambiguous scare quotes, Douglas. (But perhaps they were
intended as merely emphatic?)
Reminds me of why I have spent (a mere) 30-odd years trying to aver|t poe|try.
I am ever more convinced that we are hopelessly perverted by the romantic
enclosures: the commodification of the self (herselves) through the
fetishization and pseudo-trade of our authoritatively published so-called
personal thoughts.
I just don't know...
and neither do you,
I `think' ?
