Pausing in between the cathedral and the institution:
I had filled the exact spot of my revelation,
My former belief of my brilliance.
Recalling my old powder essay for a moment,
but it is back there in the scholarly roads of Athens
and I am supposed to be in.
I take a shifty step outside of my monument
Lest I be shot
Lest I be taken
Mistaken, and on through the institution
I would be seen as a troublemaker.
Yes, there's nothing I can do
Wandering around in this unrealized ceramic.
Nothing I churn out these days is quality,
they do not tell stories of the monkey's conquest of the Gods
they do not have holes to hold tea.
I make nickels that are politically correct,
it doesn't seem angelic.
Righteousness, nobility
I close my eyes until passed into the institution.
I rotate my old mug to read the full text:
"I have been filled with brilliance".
Old, old, old.
You cannot just turn on the machine.
Yet it will be easiest if you do not go mad -
It will be easiest to not be driven
by your personal visions.
