(in its complexity)
is much more inexplicable
than madness

The first miracle

is birth
or breaking out of the egg.
The second miracle
is male erection
especially a mule's.
The last miracle is
death.

Add worship
to miracle
and you get
deceit everlasting.

I don't find

that my socks smell worse
on the twentieth day of wearing
than they did on the first.

MONEY

You can make a market
out of anything:
love, justice, beauty, tragedy,
faith, hope and charity.

I really do not care:

is just a dancing bear.

Capitalism

is a system wherein those who are active
constantly try to cheat each other
and those who are passive.

If this really is the least-bad system we can devise,
we are less intelligent than dogs or rabbits.

Yesterday

- was I the only person in the world
eating cherries, drinking Gaillac
while listening to Schnittke's
3rd quartet ?

The last people

that a true poet wants to meet
are other poets - whether true or false;
which is why so few true poets
go to poetry festivals.
