Being an artist means ceasing to take seriously that very serious person we are when we are not an artist. Jose Ortega y Gasset

No one ever told you life wasn't going to be easy
so you thought you didn't have to work
or want to stay alive
everybody cows when dreams lead to disaster
recognition out from darkness is of growing laughter
fear of lie expected flaunted while liar slept, haunts;
who dares own our regret?
preempt looking into eyes, intentionally mystifying
coming stainlessly sheened in projectile self
hands on fist-worldy skin, brooked and part
dervish, crown scrounged from earth
adorned by percolators
