last nite i w as feel in gsa d
so i texted a great poet
i said :
dear goD
do you think, if
i havent really suffered
if
basically
ive lived a spoiled
and TOTALLY
pampered life
is there still a chance that sometimes
at least
i could still write good poetry ?
and hE said no.
No my child
as with anything in lifE
there are prerequisites :
like two heads in the oven
or a noose hanging
off a wooden beam
a chair kicked over into the corner of a room
those are the ideal
asia weevils
plaths
you need those
but who would want those my child
wouldnt you just want to be dr williams
dead of a recurring stroke
that pushed his weelchair
into a bush
of crimson cyclamen
he, pushed over
headfirst ?
leave dying alone
at a stinking hospital bed at tangiers
both yr legs cut off at the knees
leave greatness
to the real Gods
to the Rimbauds of the world
to the Rambos of the world
remember how in First Blood Part Un
he had to chisel a bullet
out of his arm
with a hunting knife ?
you want that ?
no you dont
believe mE
you wouldnt want that kind of lifE
greatness is overrated
believe mE
