This has perhaps the funniest opening line of any interview I've read.
|
Do not speak to us of the greatness of poetry,
Of the torches wisping in the underground,
Of the structure of vaults upon a point of light.
There are no shadows in our sun,
Day is desire and night is sleep.
There are no shadows anywhere.

I agree with the interviewer... Throw the cigarettes out! To me, it always seems strange seeing him smoke or drink. Anyway, Great article.

It's especially funny to see an interviewer getting all parental with him. Usually they're trying to portray him some way, not talking about how THEY react to him.  "Go to your room, young man, and don't come down until you've quit smoking!"
