"Not to bring up something upsetting, but when you leave here today, you may go through a period of unemployment. My suggestion is this: Enjoy the unemployment. Have a second cup of coffee. Go to the park. Read Walt Whitman. Walt Whitman loved being unemployed. I don't believe he ever did a day's work in his life. As you may know, he was a poet. If a lot of time goes by and you continue to be unemployed, you may want to consider announcing to all appropriate parties that you have become a poet."

drunken vision


i have no anchor without you

no solid ground to call my own

no safe place to go to

just a bed to sink into

with failure on the rise

it's no wonder that i can't rise

in the morning with a smile

my future is really no surprise

i'm going to make art or die trying

if you're in the same boat

i'd gladly take a first mate

don't let lonliness be my fate

i'll paddle through this shit

until i sink i'll steer this ship

through dark waters

to some scene from last night's dream
