"garbage has to be the poem of our time because/garbage is spiritual, believable enough/to get our attention, getting in the way, piling up, stinking, turning books brownish and creamy white: what else deflects us from the errors of our illusionary ways, not a temptation to trashlessness, that is too far off, and, anyway, unimaginable, unrealistic...where but in the very asshole of comedown is redemption" - a.r. ammons, "garbage"
