the greatest superstition
is to believe that
idiotic ideas are somehow
magically and automatically eliminated
and that bad ideas
never ruin our short lives
and that we are completely
influenced by the best ideas

if you had a bad day
you probably did not look
at the clouds

did you buy
a new shirt
because
a salesperson
made you feel bad?

we can never say:
people are good or bad.
we can always say:
ideas are good or bad.

i would like that there are no
absolute values,
that everything is good.

but, unfortunately,
there is absolute good
and there is absolute bad.

being just a bit scared of sex
is healthy.
when you stop being scared
you will start having bad sex
or even not have sex anymore.

right or left
stick or carrot
good or bad

my gesture for che zara blomfield
is a reminder for me and everyone else
that all people benefit from making art,
that there is no bad or good art,
and that art should decentralize all human communication.
i hope this gesture works out!

for few days
i did not write poems
and i felt bad about it.

i wanted to write poems
about credit cards,
my kids as forty year olds,
and some other stuff,
but no poems really emerged.

that is it. that is the poem.

my poems
are not important
because i write well.
i am actually
very bad at writing.
my poems are important
because i believe
in what i try to write
with every particle
of my existence.

i can eat
whatever trash i want
because i drink my
green tea
which destroys
all the bad stuff
and gives me a chance
to live forever
until i eat trash again
few hours later

the nature
of monopolists
is that
they do not want
to let someone else be good
but they must be
the only ones who are good
while they also
keep making money being bad

every sane person knows
rio tinto are assholes who must be stopped
but protesters made a dangerous mistake:
they created the most powerful weapon
by closing up the entire city.
this weapon will be used by many others
for any cause, good or bad,
and it will always win.
now there is no turning back.

some great poets never wrote a poem
some great poets write really bad poems
some great poems write really good poems

i read my last 20
or so poems
and they seem to be
really bad.
i apologize
for that.

i went to a really bad restaurant
food made me burp like a pig
wine gave me an instant headache
80s madonna music was super annoying
but i did forget that my dad died
for about an hour or so

it takes
only few seconds
to write a poem

no one can
really tell if its
good or bad

there is
a tiny chance
kids will have
those stupid
what-does-it-all-mean
discussions
in school
about your poems

while musicians
and painters
need decades
to perfect their
abilities

you do not need
any education or training

the less you know
better your poetry
will be

you hardly need
to know how to spell
or even speak

if no one
has any clue
what your poems
are about
this is perfectly
acceptable

yet poems are
somehow
so very cool

just so
very very cool

is as good
as much as
the first sex sucks
