John Keats died young, i think he was 25 years old
caught tuberculosis from one of his many siblings
i think it was his brother
his brothers and sisters were all struck ill
he an esteemed poet in the Romantic period
as famous and as much of a rock star as
William Blake, Wordsworth, Lord Byron, Shelley
He fell madly in love – tragically – with Fanny Browne
before hospitalized for consumption
catching it while caring for his dying brother, Tom
I was young, but I fell in love with his words and his legacy.
Soon I will write an epic poem based on his essence…
Soon. I will take a break from epic poetry and write an Ode
or a letter to a friend
who keeps it and sells it to
publishers without my
expired permission
like JKs letters
if you read them
wink at me so I know who you are.
Bright Star
Bright star! would I were steadfast as thou art—
Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night,
And watching, with eternal lids apart,
Like Nature’s patient sleepless Eremite,
The moving waters at their priestlike task
Of pure ablution round earth’s human shores,
Or gazing on the new soft fallen mask
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors—
No—yet still steadfast, still unchangeable,
Pillow’d upon my fair love’s ripening breast,
To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,
Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,
Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath,
And so live ever—or else swoon to death.
How to market to dull audiences.
How to market to dull audiences.
No really, the internet has taken a turn for the worse this past quarter, the trend seems to be a direct impact of the current industry trends, notwithstanding the holidays, most of which are recognized as days to target as potential customers. Unless the market is smart and dull as all the humanity. They are those kids you totally understood what someone meant when you said, “So, like, what’s the deal with that guy?” to your mutual friend or roommate and your mutual friend said, “Oh, Pat is an engineer major,” and you knew from experience and campus legendary stories passed on as fact that engineers were recluses and had to be targeted as such.
