Just one step closer to the end

If you've ever stared into the gaping abyss of yourself, you'll probably know that nothing has a deeper bottom than a pornstarlet. People of depth have parts to themselves that are far from the shallows and closer to the gallows. You can make as many handbags out of a blogger's ear as you like but there's only one certain way to go blind. If you've ever played darts blindfolded you'll know what I'm talking about. People who've played pub-games impaired know everything. Knowing myself as I do, and I surely don't, I know that there isn't much to know about things that have little to know about them. Little known as it is, the self is far from an indelicate matter. Throw yourself in the laundry with delicates and you'll know just how much. To know yourself isn't as important as knowing me. I'm it and a bit and a bit and another bit. Another bit of information that you'll clutch to your bosom is that clutching information to your bosom is pointless. The self is more than an accumulation of knowledge. It takes depth so take a floatie. Like a turd in a swimming pool, I'm popular. Popular like a shit in a sandpit. Self and others: opposite.

You're like a cross between Vikram Seth, Oscar Wilde and several other things I can't identify... Or maybe you're just unmistakeably 'Norm'. I like this.

P.S.--I shrink at the thought of throwing myself in the laundry.

You know, they say that cream rises to the top. Which is well and good, but people often forget that shit floats. Sometimes it's hard to tell the shit from the cream.

D.Armenta,
I have no idea.
No notion.
Not a jot.

Michaelie,
I've never read either of those two.
Bits of Wilde, yes.
None of Seth.
My works are short like pants without legs and sensible like shorts with legs.
Thanks,
Norm
