IN THE WORDS OF
JEAN COCTEAU
'If artists have a dream, it is not of being famous but
of being believed.' Yes, I will sail with that one.
I have to imagine all these beliefs about things
which I do not hold, and hold on. It's nothing
personal, and I am not just preaching to the
converted. I want you to shine and stand
forth, come out from your covers and fly
like a bird. We all have wings, though
they are wings we didn't know we had.
-
That's fairly simple. Stretch them then.
-
T. S. Eliot said Blasphemy is possible only
to the believer. Religious poetry opens that
option? All religious art is blasphemous like
all erotic art is pornography? Thinking not, I
think. There are millions of people in small
towns tonight, fornicating like pigs in a stall.
-
That's fairly simple. Let them all.
-
'Rip down all hate, I screamed!'
