1) Poetry was a lot more poetic before I learned about what poetry was. Not is. 2) Poetry is like a plastic lemon or orange. And you can cut it but not eat it. But you can do anything else you want to it. 3) Poetry is the most beautiful failure there is 4) If poetry is honest then it is always better than what is seen as good poetry. And what is known as good poetry. 5) Poetry does not listen even when you say no. It will make you bleed. 6) The poem is a very hungry grave. A very patient grave. A poem is not poetry. 7) Poetry is not poetic. But it has something to do with fetish-ising the poetic. And ax has something to do with a tree, even without the violence. 8) Poetry lies and doesn’t do anything.
