Dick

My backpack is full of books
Their backpack is full of books

My backpack has better books

There is a feeling of elitism in writers
My book is better because I wrote it
I know who wrote your book
Textbooks aren’t poetry
Aren’t writing
Aren’t art
I am art
I art more than the people who wrote your textbooks
Writing is not art
My writing is art
This makes my backpack art
This makes me art
This makes my clothes art

Stay away from me
You are sick from not being art
If I touch you, you would get art

Art is for me and my shoes and the sidewalk that I walk on
And poles I hold on the train
Do not try cooking the train poles in a broth of sidewalk cement
That old recipe that your grandpa brought back from war
Will never make enough servings

I am a full serving
