I Will Take With Me The Emptiness

My Cradle Was A Shoe.

Through All Of Youth I Was Looking For You Without Knowing What I Was Looking For

I Think There's A Kind Of Desperate Hope Built Into Poetry That One Really Wants, Hopelessly, To Save The World. One Is Trying To Say Everything That Can Be Said For The Things That One Loves While There's Still Time.

The Attempt To Live That Way, The Attempt To Treat Everybody - It Fails All The Time - But The Attempt To Treat People As Equals Is A Good Attempt. It's A Very Good Attempt. And There Have Been Very Few Governments That Have Come Anywhere Near It In The Past. The Greeks Began To, The Romans Began To - They Both Failed.

To Succeed [,] Consider What Is As Though It Were Past, Deem Yourself Inevitable And Take Credit For It. If You No Longer Believe, Enlarge The Temple.
