2014-10-28 1 Dailymotion

“Bernstein, I thought you were a man <br />of integrity and action, <br />but then you appeared <br />diffuse and lacking will. <br />That depressed me.” <br />“It depressed me too, Tunstill.” <br />“You were becoming a paradigm for me.” <br />“In what sense? ” <br />“You were in your late-thirties <br />and getting it together. <br />I was impressed by your writing <br />thirteen hours a day <br />for thirty-five days. There was <br />a supreme devotion to your art. <br />Here in you was a model <br />of someone who had overcome <br />rough and conflicted beginnings. <br />See both of us <br />stumbled at the starting block <br />then I saw the same old nagging <br />confusion pulling at you <br />so it was disappointing, disheartening, <br />saddening.” <br />“Did you notice <br />how I’m back on my feet again? <br />Just look at that damsel <br />in the short pink dress <br />and she’s not wearing panties <br />takes guts to walk around like that <br />cause a strong breeze comes along <br />and there it is for all the world to see.” <br />“You know, Bernstein, <br />it’s difficult to have <br />a serious conversation with you <br />but listen: <br />you have periods of <br />intense <br />almost <br />manic creativity <br />followed by intervals of <br />a fallow depressive quality <br />you are, and I say this <br />with utmost sadness, <br />an intermittent artist.”<br /><br />Charles Chaim Wax<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/two-unpublished-authors-in-their-late-thirties/
