The Kenosha Kid

[Glenn Scheper]

I guess I must blow my own horn:

 Kenosha Kid sequence as an onomatopoeia of schizophrenia

You know, when I wrote how Kenosha kid sounded like my own
past schizophrenic thinking, I figured Pynchon was writing
out of some such personal metamorphosis-related experience.

That still could account for Pynchon's reclusiveness.
Why, I can't remember a day I got crazier faster,
than when I tried to go to Magic Mountain --
All of those different minds pouring in and out of my mind,
whose doors had been blown off, whose little Maxwell demon
was no longer on the job to only let good thoughts come in.

Yours truly,
Glenn Scheper
