The one thing that those guys do is they try to beat you every possession, which is a mentality we have to recapture around here.

The only cure for materialism is the cleansing of the six sense (eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind). If the senses are clogged, one's perception is stifled. The more it is stifled, the more contaminated the sense become. This creates disorder in the world, and that is the greatest evil of all.

The only thing I daydreamed about was being an opera singer. But I was so skinny and so pathetic that that sort of wasn't going to happen.

The only thing I see here with the celebrities is that they do go overseas, like Pierce Brosnan - who's not even an American citizen, he's an Irishman, unfortunately - and they present a perception of America that's flat-out not true. For that they should be chastised.

The poem builds in my mind and sits there, as if in a register, until the poem, or a piece of a longer poem, is finished enough to write down. I can hold several lines in my head for quite some time, but as soon as they are written down, the register clears, as it were, and I have to work with what is on the paper.
