Don't Bow Down To Critics Who Have

The State Of The World Calls Out For Poetry To Save It.

I Am Waiting For The War To Be Fought Which Will Make The World Safe For Anarchy

I Was On Television A Couple Of Years Ago And The Reporter Asked Me, "how Does It Feel Being On Mainstream Media? It's Not Often Poets Get On Mainstream Media." I Said, "well I Think You're The Dominant Media, The Dominant Culture, But You're Not The Mainstream Media. The Mainstream Media Is Still The High Culture Of Intellectuals: Writers, Readers, Editors, Librarians, Professors, Artists, Art Critics, Poets, Novelists, And People Who Think. They Are The Mainstream Culture, Even Though You May Be The Dominant Culture."

Poets, Come Out Of Your Closets, Open Your Windows, Open Your Doors, You Have Been Holed Up Too Long In Your Closed Worlds... Poetry Should Transport The Public/to Higher Places/than Other Wheels Can Carry It.
