“ODE TO BOHEMIANS”
O happy vagabond!
O stalwart bohemian,
defying the ordinary rules of society
to express your inner self,
to tell those callous motherfuckers
what it’s like, to achieve
the highest glory of man
and then sink back in its clouds
never to be seen again, like strange celebrities
whose caricatures grow dim and fade
from the page of memory…
Thank you, anyway,
you colorful individuals.
