Today I’m agonizing over trivialities but with so much passion! I like to think of Nabokov and his butterflies: nothing wrong with collecting baseball caps either if you can’t muster up the patience to learn long Latin sentence serpents. Perhaps it’s time for some Hesse: The Glass Bead Game. Glass beads are wonderful items: iconic little globes that contain worlds beyond our imagination. Evidently beyond mine ‘cause I can’t see nothing there. Mental note: create main character called ‘Kurt’, who is suicidal because he lost his hat, size 59. Sex: image of hatband dripping with sweat. Love interest: butterflies or beads. Beady eyes. His boss tells him: “Your fly is open.”
