There is in every madman

a misunderstood genius

whose idea

shining in his head

frightened people

and for whom delirium was the only solution

to the strangulation

that life had prepared for him

Thought:

“There are probably other worthwhile artistic goals than deconstructing mimesis, but I don’t anticipate that one wearing thin for me.”
