Old Masters in Florence

Forget colouring in

and anything to do with art – unless it’s felt music.

Museums? They’re good for shouts, shocks:

people look and Ssshh.

Old Masters? Stuff!

Forget it.

Smiles.

Not stuff.

  1. WOW, a real blog?
    How refreshing.
    Blogger has gotten so filthy with spamblogs...what a shame.
    I noticed your follow on twitter. Thanks.

    Although I am NOT a writer (IANAW, I like poetry. That started when I saw Jack Kerouack (sp?) reading on TV back in the 60's.

    Would I be able to share some of your stuff on my blog if I choose?

  6. The smile, the feeling is the essence, the seed without which there would be no great art. I don't like the way art is held up & paraded before herds who behave disgustingly respectful in the presence this numinous sacred thing But Hey, dude, great art is fucking great! Almost as much the energetic smile that brought it into being
    p.s. I would like your permission to demand that you do as you want
