When you're a kid, 14 to 18 maybe, on the bus, everywhere, all the time. There must be better things to do with such young people than was done with me. I'd be thinking of the sorts of relationships in Guy Davenport's "Death of Picasso". Really, it's all (just about) a complete and utter waste. But now my kids are that age. They have to learn all the things of life, of course, but it feels like a waste too, hopefully not a complete and utter one.
