To Joseph Conrad, after reading "Heart of Darkness"
If the spirit of universal
genius is meant to float
down the river into naught,
to be attenuated by the
jealous against authenticity,
& if it turns quotidian life into
an unworkable mess, as
universal genius attempts to
forge alliances above spheres
which must be minded on Earth,
& if it expresses itself to the crass,
& the crass is everyone, & Kurtz
understands the parasitism involved,
saturation in/by malevolence, then
