We Come For You
-
We Come For You Your institutions and idolatry Your self-hobbling insistence on records and the fictions of an easy series of yes no real unreal true false pleasant little lies you tell yourself to try to keep your footing as everything shifts underneath your feet until the only thing left standing is the place where you once stood. What is it? Vanity? You're invested. You believe the myth, while pretending to scoff at myth. And starve as a direct result. When we come for you, you'll be hungry. And so will we. Your notion of an objective realness, and an essential trueness is spat on by the simple subordination of the complicated and brittle to the organism of truth - the complexness and vastness of the possible. I'm invested in divesting you, and slashing your mores, instead of your wrists, and those scars brother, your sleeves don't hide them well. When we come for you, we'll be burning. And so will you :cool: (i need a copy editor)
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

essaying like this is about as close to poetry as i get. now for some reason i have some passages from Bukowski stuck in my head - particularly Genius of the Crowd.

I knew Bukowski vaguely back in my beatnik-wanna-be daze in NYC's lower east side in 1962. I say vaguely because you didn't meet Bukowski, he ran over you on his way fast to wherever his demons were taking him. Really an ugly person compared to Ginsburg, di Prima, Corso, Ferlinghetti, Rexroth, Patchen, and others in that scene.

yeah he was, but i don't judge the art by the person. sometimes terrible people make great art. Genius of the Crowd, i think qualifies. It's really good.

No it's just part of the bot's instruction to go insane once in a while. Chris should have documented this feature somewhere.

No, in the sense I was not a close friend, or a member of their "circles." Yes, in the limited sense that i went to events where they appeared, and read poetry, or appeared in some other context. Yes, in the sense that I was an avid reader of their works. Yes, in the sense that once in a while some of them might show up at the all night readings at St. Mark's in the Bowery, in NYC, or, later, in SF, at City Lights Bookstore, at the poetry jams at Minnie's Can-Do, or at other events. The 1967 Human Be-In with Michael McClure, Lenore, Gary Snyder, Charles Olson, and other poets was remarkable. At one point I had personally signed original copies of Ginsberg's "Howl," Leonard Cohen's "The Spice-Box of Earth," and Lenore Kandel's "The Love Book" which was seized by the police after it was declared obscene. Those were lost in a fire.

Not to worry, you didn't get close enough to do any damage.

Wow. You have been lucky and blessed. When I was about 17 I read Desolation Angels. Then I discovered Gregory and Lawrence. They changed my life. They helped to shaped me into the man that I am today. (Those cops have a lot of good books.)
