To break convention
To be Ancient Greek
To deny the Shiva-Lingam
its flowers stream!

Why can't I tell him
how perfect Bach is!
I can't stand it!
Writing about learning
just as drunk on music
as the warm whisky
while baboons fuck
late in the day.

Do you ever feel your whole life is a sham?

At 79, we'll rise to the top together
like mold.
