Ten Typ Mes Tribute to Hank song lyrics

I mean, and then many of the great poets of the past,

I've read their stuff. I've read it.

All I get is a goddamn headache and boredom,

I really feel sickness in the pit of my stomach,

I say: "There's some trick going on here, this is not true.

This is not real, its not good."

You see poetry itself contains as much energy as a Hollywood industry.

As much energy as a stage play on Broadway.

All it needs is practitioners who are alive to bring it alive.

Poetry has always been said to be a private, hidden art.

Not to be appreciated.

The reason it's not appreciated is because it hasn't shown any guts,

Hasn't shown any dance. Hasn't shown any moxie. Got it?
