Summary

This quote suggests that bad or unconventional poetry can sometimes be superior to well-crafted poetry because it is more authentic and emotionally genuine. While the quality of the work may not be as refined or technically proficient, the quote argues that the raw and unfiltered expression of one's emotions and personal experiences is inherently valuable and can resonate more deeply with others. It champions the idea that true artistry lies in the sincere expression of one's innermost thoughts and feelings, even if it lacks conventional excellence.

Beauty could be defined simply as 'that which pleases.' But

Beauty could be defined simply as 'that which pleases.' But there is another aspect to art, and that... is the sublime. Like the mushroom cloud of the atom bomb, or the vastness of space as projected to us by satellite... the greatness of the experience goes beyond your ethical and aesthetic judgment, cutting you free from the binding ego of yourself.
