Anecdotal Evidence: `Maybe I've Seen Things You'll Never See''

Anecdotal Evidence: `Maybe I've Seen Things You'll Never See''
Excerpt:
Deborah Warren does in “Dialogue with Myself” (Zero Meridian, 2004):
“I spend a lot of time in haunts not only

off the beaten track – they don’t exist:

Chez Swann, in Casterbridge, at Troy, at nowhere –

“Get a life! you say. God! What you’ve missed!

Hey, yeah – let’s spend the even in a chair.
Let’s live it up with dim protagonists.
Let’s dally on the sofa with Voltaire.
It’s kind of scary (not to mention lonely)
when your entire social life consists
of ghosts and venues like a blasted heath.
Besides – I have to tell you – it’s escapist.
Life? Your life’s a kind of living death,

“you say. So do your living. As for me,
maybe I’ve seen some things you’ll never see.”
