It's true that what is morbid is highly valued today, and so you may think that I am only joking or that I've devised just one more means of praising Art with the help of irony.

I am composed of contradictions, which is why poetry is a better form for me than philosophy

Forget the suffering You caused others. Forget the suffering Others caused you. The waters run and run, Springs sparkle and are done, You walk the earth you are forgetting.

When I die, I will see the lining of the world. The other side, beyond bird, mountain, sunset.

You see how I try To reach with words What matters most And how I fail.

I have defined poetry as a 'passionate pursuit of the Real.

When I curse Fate, it's not me, but the earth in me.
