I was thinking about it and how the high school students getting thrown
out of school for coming out and the old gays in our final years are
still having to fight for basic health care and it book ends, so to
speak, in narrative terms.
Or at least in terms of the novels I am writing and revising. But this
is not a narrative which goes from point A to point B and so the
shortest point between A and B is not a straight line but an infinite
distance which can never meet or connect A and B. This then excludes any
a-priori transcendental form or aesthetic and so this immediately
excludes and poetics which may appeal to Aristotle's poetics.
But I will leave off here, for now, except to say that a queer narrative
is radically new, hence always novel... too tired to say more.

I do not know why chance kept me alive and I was not looking forward to living in aged care designed for heterosexuals and I was seriously considering ending my life, due to severe health and aging concerns, while I still had it together.
