Ah! I’m fed up: -- But, dear Satan, a less fiery eye I beg you! And while awaiting a few small infamies in arrears, you who love the absence of the instructive or descriptive faculty in a writer, for you let me tear out these few, hideous pages from my notebook of one of the damned....Arthur Rimbaud
that's completely wonderful! i'll be sure to check out the morning show. i really miss jordan... i haven't seen him in quite sometime. you & him both have amazing talent.
actually, i must correct myself. the mean bean has an upper level and they open it for musicians sometimes. there is also a bookstore called beehive books that has musicians come and play, as well as the restaurant called the old bag of nails. you should come. i'll show you around.
that is absolutely beautiful. reading that made me feel so good inside. as though there is all this ancient and lovely poetry resting deep inside of every one of us just waiting to be truthfully released.
Guess who's doing the sound for the second stage at the Bellbrook Jamboree? You guessed it. I'm pumped to see you again. And to see you play. It's been too long.
poetry is magical. it is unfortunate that it is presented as a text- book type subject in the schools-- and not the living breathing thing that it is.
luckily music is keeping poetry alive, since we've practically condemned it to books otherwise. (not that books are bad, it just seems as though we feel that once literature is written in books, it is safe and does not need to be nourished.) but perhaps i am just insane.
oh i just found the most lovely poem. the one about the candy store and falling in love and dead leaves. thank you for suggesting his work. you have fantastic taste. i will have to investigate further.
do you like langston hughes? (i know many people think he is overrated. . . )
