Don't Say That, Say Everything

Anyone who tells you "To be a poet, you must sit in the park and get pissed off of cheap wine", is talking shit.

Anyone who tells you, "You can't be in love until you've suffered, felt real pain", is talking shit. 

Anyone who tells you, "To be an artist, you must have a foot in the doorway of poverty and destitution", is talking shit.

 There are no rules. 

Anyone who tells you," you have to do this, or you have to do that", is talking shit. 

The point is rebellion. 

And, destruction and evolution and change.

There are no conditions. 

or compromises, 
or restraints

Honesty isn't always pretty -it isn't always romantic,
or happy, 
or funny,
or drunk,
or sad,
or stoned. 

There are no rules - and anyone who tries to tell you that there are, is talking shit.

Don't listen to anyone who tells you that you are not smart enough, you're not experienced enough, you're not resourceful enough - they too, are talking shit.

Never accept anything from anyone who doesn't accept you - the way that you are. 

They will tell you that you're too emotional, 
or too childish, 
or too romantic. 

They'll say you dream too much, 
you drink too much, 
you laugh too loud. 

They'll say that you're weird, 
or different, 
or crazy, 
not normal.

They are the greatest shit-talkers of all.

They cannot accept freedom and they hate pure beauty. 

They only know how to critisize and complain. 

They want to mold and shape you. 

They want to change you.

They want you, in their imagage 

They want clones. 

They want zombies.

They want you to be unthreatening and weak. 
Just like them.
