Edgar Allen Poe, Hart Crane, Willam Yeats 1916
Frank o'Hara, Bukowski, Ginsberg,
The Rubiyat of Omar Khayyam
Ezra Pound, Emily Dickenson, Sylvia Plath, Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva
Every one of them considered mad to write poetry.
My madness find me on the George Washington Bridge
Resisting the urge to fly
Hart Crane
On USS Orizaba
His supposed last words
To his sailor assassins
'Good-bye everyone."
Some other people prefer this ending.
"Fuck you. I'll show you courage."
He hung his jacket on the railing and jumped overboard.
Into the Gulf of Mexico.
Fcuk you indeed.
Classic Poetic Dysleixa in honor of a poet lost at sea.
