Yesterday I walked over to the Strand bookstore. It takes 15 minutes at the most. I had time till the college football games came on on my iPad at 4:00. I don’t have a TV. My parents didn’t really watch TV. The big console TV was in the living room and nobody hung in there. I went to Strand to see what I could see that might jump off a table into my hands. Something always does. Yesterday it was a thin paperback. $6.95. The Hatred of Poetry by smart young poet guy Ben Lerner. I also got a little Moleskine 2021 planner/calendar notebook. There was a line outside and a store clerk manning the door letting us in when it seemed right.
