gptkbp:famous_quote I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness.
America, I’ve given you all and now I’m nothing.
I’m not a poet, I’m a poet’s poet.
The poet is a prophet.
You can't go wrong if you take the time to listen.
The mind is a wonderful servant but a terrible master.
The only thing that can save the world is the reclaiming of the awareness of the world.
Poetry is a political act because it involves telling the truth.
To gain your own voice, you have to forget about having it heard.
Follow your inner moonlight; don't hide the madness.
