"Fair summer droops, droop men and beasts therefore: So fair a summer look for never more. All good things vanish, less than in a day, Peace, plenty, pleasure, suddenly decay. Go not yet away, bright soul of the sad year; The earth is hell when thou leav'st to appear."

“The best thing about conceptual poetry is that it doesnâ€™t need to be read. You donâ€™t have to read it. As a matter of fact, you can write books, and you donâ€™t even have to read them. My books, for example, are unreadable. All you need to know is the concept behind them. Hereâ€™s every word I spoke for a week. Hereâ€™s a yearâ€™s worth of weather reports... and without ever having to read these things, you understand them.”
