Oh yeah, from Connecticut, his father designed houses for hedge funders and WWE guys, he would provide the wine and brie and caviar when we took mushrooms and wandered the Plantations. Did a really good sonnet sequence though, and got into an MFA program on the strength of that.

Now that I think of it that sequence was probably manic too, one of it he walked into my room when my girlfriend was there and asked permission then free-riffed a sonnet for her and it was so good it papered over the awkwardness that he had just showed up and told my gf – in meter – how good she must be to fuck.

Their family doctor literally thought amphetamines should be added to municipal water like flouride, looking back that explains a lot of him.
