instead, the question may be, will charlottesville be a place i want to come back to in three years?

the nohrnbergs will probably be living in new york in three years' time, and charles vandersee is already dead - and i could not come back - if i do not think - that the people i love - are no longer here. better go somewhere else in that case.

there's a dusty book at the bottom of alderman waiting for me, but the poet may or may not be there.
