      I’ve met Cyrus Console. I’ve seen him. He seems very serious. It’s like he’s from a movie. If there was a very serious poet in a movie, his name might be Cyrus Console. That’s an unreal name. I’ve never talked to him. I’m from Kansas and he’s from Kansas. I met him in Kansas. It seems that Ben Lerner is from Kansas, too. I think of Kansas as one of those strange provinces in Canada that your rarely hear about. Saskatchewan. The biggest city in Saskatchewan is Saskatoon. The biggest city in Kansas is Wichita. Cyrus Console and Ben Lerner are both from Topeka. They have MFAs from Bard College and Brown University, respectively. Those are both in Ontario.

      Are you trying to tell me Ben Lerner and Cyrus Console are cyborgs?

      Cyrus Console is not a very good secretive name for a cyborg.

      When I first saw the name Cyrus Console, I thought of Cyrax from Mortal Kombat Trilogy for N64. Cyrax is actually a cyborg. Cyrus Console does seem like a very obvious name for a cyborg. Maybe he’s chosen a stereotypically cyborg name to make people think he couldn’t possibly be a cyborg-in-disguise. He’s probably a cyborg-in-disguise. That would explain why he talks kinda like a robot, but a robot that doesn’t want to be treated any different because he’s a robot. I cannot ascertain what percentage of Ben Lerner’s body is robotic.

      I agree, Cyrus Console probably doesn’t want to be treated any different. Don’t mention that we had this conversation if you see him.

      Judging by your interests, you’ll like it. He bends the lyric it till it breaks and and then allows the reader to play with the pieces.
