I spoke with a poet yesterday (I read poetry at this open brain and I was nervous out of my mind) and both of us bombed so I went over to him while my girlfriend was talking with some other friends to say hello. I told him good job even though I didn't really mean it, but I was bad too so I needed some company, anyway we talked about what poetry is and should be, and I got involved in this long pretentious conversation about art. He asked me what magic is, and I said "Harry Potter" we both laughed. His other point is that poetry should reveal some kind of truth, and I believed in the complete opposite. I said poetry should be a way to escape, we laughed at our disagreement and then we drank to that. That was the end of the conversation, but my point is this,
poems poems poems, who reads these ****** things anyway?
