Any authentically original idea Presenting itself without "known antecedents" Is systematically rejected Toned down, mauled, chewed Re-chewed, spewed forth Destroyed, yes, and even worse... Reduced to the most monstrous of mediocrities. The excuse offered is always the vulgarity Of the vast majority of the public. I insist that this is absolutely false. The public is infinitely superior to the rubbish What is fed to it daily. The masses have always known Where to find true poetry. The misunderstanding has come about entirely Through those "middle-men of culture" Who, with their lofty airs and superior quacking Come between the creator and the public.
