Hejinian's My Life

Thoughts on Lyn Hejinian's stunning pseudo-memoir, My Life...

Reading the partial page of Hejinian's poem got me thinking how I can actually relate to this sort of writing. The writing is scattered and like ADHD and has a short attention span on the thought put forth. Reading only part of this poem brings me to the conclusion that I get it without having to read the entire book/writing. My mind is often in a fast forward tract and keeps turning focus so very often that sometimes I get dizzy trying to get back to task on hand. So very glad to read something that makes me think I am not that different after all. Thank you, Lynn.


P.S. Not sure I will ever catch up to my beginning thoughts.
