That most men don't gamble with their lives or their creativity is not my fault. And it makes for dull writing and dull writers.
Poetry has long been an in-game, a snob game, a game of puzzles and incantations. It still is, and most of its practitioners operate as professors in our safe and stale universities.
I'd never advise anybody to become a writer, only if writing is the only thing which keeps you from going insane. Then, perhaps, it's worth it.
Charles Bukowski, 1988
