ALT DEAR RABBIT GOD, I don't believe in suffering for one's art. I believe in frolicking for one's art. I believe in eating well for one's art. I believe in farting for one's art. I believe in making beautiful friends for one's art. And making plans with one's friends for one's art, I believe in this utterly. Especially when those friends hold you accountable to making your art, revising your thought, practicing your politics. I believe that my gaysian life is integral to my art and I believe that difference should be embraced, not shunned, not simplified. I believe that poems that love earthly difference alongside or even more than spiritual transcendence are better poems. I believe in falling wildly in love for one's art and for no reason at all. I believe in orgasming for one's art.
