The best poem

Is an expression of a pure and complete

Surrender

Of pride and dignity

Unto a STRANGER

elevated mystically

Into LOVER

that one is FOREVER

subservient to

And enthralled by

///

This allows the poet to make up

Any **** he / she wants to

Without fear of that person

( since the lover is all imagination)

And hence ( also )

No possibility of any pain

Nor any necessity for feeling any responsibility

For anything

Or anyone

•


All great poems basically amount to

The full flowering of the

I FEEL SORRY FOR MYSELF

brand of psuedo artistry we are trying

So desperately to cultivate

••

This is the GREAT STANDARD

Set here at HP

//

It is also known as

THE DUMBING DOWN OF AMERICA 'S CHILDREN

/::/

and we are all MASTERS OF DUMB

which is our Pride

And the legacy

We leave for tomorrow
