Hello, hello. I do realize now that I can write anything I want, that I do
not n eed fancy language or programming, that I can just state my honest
beliefs and e motions (sentiments), that my craft is fine, that I am
^?^?^?^?^?                          excellent.^?            excellent now,
that I am a real poet with  real things to write and say. And this is
wonderful because to be sure everythi ng I do has been of miserable cause,
that is to say, far more difficult than I w ould like; programming is not
my strong point, and you can't even run spellcheck  t^?   when there are
many deliberate errors. Now that I am freed, I will take my plac e among
the poets, I will have a history, you will be the witness to that histor
y, you will be my witness.

No longer do I have to fake code, make things appear as if they work, do
somethi ng beyond simply mean in a poetic way; how could I be but happy
about this? It i s as if a terrible burden has been lifted from me. I can
place word after word,  line after line, without regard to code
correctness, originality of style, or si gns of genius somehow lying
outside the work. I can pay attention to word and ph rase, abstract and
realist, nominalist and universal, or not even think of these  or any
other categories. Oh, how I long to write!

I Consider the following again, your Hello, hello. I do realize now that I
can w rite anything I want, that I do not need fancy language or
programming, that I c an just state my honest beliefs and emotions
(sentiments), that my craft is exce llent now, that I am a real poet with
real things to write and say. And this is  wonderful because to be sure
everything I do has been of miserable cause, that i s to say, far more
difficult than I would like; programming is not my strong poi nt, and you
can't even run spellcheck when there are many deliberate errors. Now  that
I am freed, I will take my place among the poets, I will have a history, y
ou will be the witness to that history, you will be my witness. ...

For writing is my appetite, as is my obsessive seaking after^?^?  seeking
after fame. And yet fame shall come to me, or it shall not - and this will
depend on one thing only: my p oetic talant. Everything else is clever
gimmickry; I'm surprised so very few hav e seen through me...
