One thing I do find in the lost generation or something is a kind of abhorrence of history, you know, like it's boring, dumb, or just not interesting. I think it's terribly interesting if you can get your head around how it relates to where you're standing right here and now.

My writing just kind of exists out there in the air-it's all sort of intended as spoken, or sung, word.
