Have you found a Guerilla Poetics Project broadside? Register it here.
Picasso said that before success,
few understand the artist.
After success,
few understand the artist.
I like that.
I've worked at a lot of different jobs in my life.
One year I had 32 jobs.
The job I've liked best so far is
being a poet.
As a poet, I have very little money, and
I live in the shadows of polite society as an unknown.
That's my current job.
I consider myself a success.
Either you understand that,
or you don't.
Either way, I'm glad I'm here.
