when do you put down your
pen(your brush chalk charcoal pencil stylus)
when youre unconsciouswhen youre
indisposed earning a livingentertaining
family or friends seeking your own entertainment
he remembered how he felt when
Tony Judt was turned Off
his seething roiling filled-to-the-brim vessel
kicked over
his books now soppy remnantssponges of his cooling water
though six years later they can still scald you
he remembered Camus Fanon Said
Miller Nin Hemingway Burroughs Dick Joyce Twain Orwell
Oh well & So it goesVonnegut
not that
hed forget
he wouldnt forget
not until his vessel was kicked over
not the canvases Van Gogh Picasso
Gauguin Monet Kahlo Chagall Miro Riveras murals not the sculptures the
anonymous Stone-aged Primitives Greeks Mesoamericans Africans Michelangelo Moore
not the cave paintings the fingerpaintings in France and Spain and Bulgaria
he would not forget the heatall and
every bit of the worlds unfettered imagination and inclinations and Jeez he knew
if they were stacked one on top
of the other they could follow Voyager beyond our solar realm
you dont put them down
theyre taken away from you against your
will
Obsess.
