I sound like Homer. I mean Winslow Homer.
I don't live for poetry. I live far more than anybody else does.
Forgive me if I sleep until I wake up.
You can do anything, really. And that, l think, is one of the exciting possibilities of the present, l swear, is the possibility that the goddamn thing can be modaled throughout.
All that matters is that the thing be the thing of the thing.
The poem, for me, is simply the first sound realized in the modality of being.
