And it's somehow comforting to know I won't be the only weirdo on campus. :)
Hee! I think English majors by nature have an easier time getting obsessive about a fandom, and Kenyon is certainly crawling with us. It helps that, because we can't get cable in our rooms, you have to congregate in the lounges in order to watch SF TV, and of course you naturally run into likeminded folks. (Speaking of which, I see you have Stargate listed as an interest...I need to introduce you to my roommmate from last year, who's actually going to be on campus this year. Upperclass Wellness, where I lived last year, was composed entirely of geeks, and we had great fun in the lounge on Stargate nights. :))
I loved the entry just before this one.
Thanks!
I don't know Collins as well as I should (something I mean to remedy, and soon, especially after the poems you posted), but I definitely know the feeling.
It seems like every year or two I discover another poet who just pushes all the right buttons for me. Last time it was Edna St. Vincent Millay, but Collins hit me even harder. Maybe it's that I like free verse more, I dunno.
I've made my fair share of poetry-love posts, too.

It's fun being a lit geek, isn't it? ;)
