is this a paradox mary?



I am afraid of:

1. being a drunk

I am afraid of:

2. being a sober shit

I am afraid of:

3. being sad

I am afraid of:

4. being a happy shit



I'm not really a drunk, right now.

Now my grandfather he was a drunk and my father

was when he was my age, but a woman straightened him out.

Maybe I just need a good woman.

Or maybe I should just move away, back to South America, where no one will know I am a drunk.

But that way the fading would be to subtle,

I'd have to make some kind of a spectacle.


If I WAS A HAPPY SHIT:

my writing wouldn't be half good.

I would marry a happy shit, and then I'd have to get stinko-drunk just to fuck her, so we could have happy-shit kids

If I was A Happy shit:

nothing I say would be brilliant,

because

There is nothing great to be said about happiness,

BECAUSE happy people don't know there happy,

those ignorant bastards.

And therefore they also don't know what they are writing about.


You see me I think

I think

I think

I think

and it's killing me,

but for god sakes I'm only twenty-one,

I don't want to be happy yet.



besides the writing would be shit.







Please tell me what you think

    glad I found this

    This found me, sleeping in raggedy clothes, it made me very happy-happy about feeling like shit. I am glad I got to fly around in your world.

    One love

    Ha, ha, ha... too many people marry too young being trapped. I'm married but will never bring a child into this world. For I am too selfish, I live for me and my wife. We choose to see the world and all of our friends have the capability of wiping their own asses as it should be. Enjoy your misery as a fine glass of scotch will never try to make you into something that you are not already really are inside.

    Forget the good women dude. Settle down with me.

    This is my favourite of your poems so far. You don't need me to tell you where it's good.

    you're only 21? wow.

    there's a lot of truth here, at least there is for me when i read it.

    it's amazing! don't think i only say these things becuase i read your stuff and i don't know better but to say that it's amazing...it really is. i can totally imagine you, the christopher harder i imagine, as being the...lord knows what. well, no, just sort of like the next generation of beatniks.

    awesome awesome awesome.

    i can't say enough. i wish i could explain what i'm thinking, but seeing as how i don't explain my thoughts well in words, and you're amazingly wonderful with words, i'd much rather not say much...i don't want to seem like too much of a dunce.

    ha.

    awesome awesome awesome write.
