What am I doing here? Making myself pariah, as usual. Among the professional marginalites & criticriticritical oppositionalists. Why? Thankless task. Lowest of the gutterdrones.

My adopted state has a history of pariahdom. RI was always Rogue's Island to puritanical Massachusetts, prim Connecticut. Why am I doing this? Maso-exhibitionism? "Here, have some of my sin." Stubborn Grew is about that - becoming leper in pariah state.

Deeper motives. Who is "J", really?? Or M? Or W? Collecting memories. Joseph Cornell.

What a dreary week, mostly, among my fellow bloggists. But I will hold my tongue - they flee from mee anyhowe.
