I would wonder if there be A hidden portrait there of thee Which bears thy sin and guilt and shame While outwardly, thou art the same. If this not be, then let me write A poem to bring this all to light. Let these immortal words then be That true and twisted sight of thee.

Dorian (unfinished)
My dear boy, the people who love only once in their lives are the really shallow people. What they call their loyalty, and their fidelity, I call either lethargy of a custom or their lack of imagination. Faithfulness is to the emotional life what consistency is to the life of the intellect- simply a confession of failure. Lord Henry Wotton                                                                         The Picture of Dorian Gray

People who love once in their lives....
A great poet, a really great poet, is the most unpoetical of all creatures. But inferior poets are absolutely fascinating. The worse their rhymes are, the more picturesque they look. Lord Henry Wotton The Picture of Dorian Gray

What makes a really great poet?
crimson light fills his irises siren wails urge him to tell ashes fill His mouth advising to yield smoke fills his blackened heart horror crawls in his brain like pale maggots panic reigns when the time to reveal gets near
