What should my next poem be about?
When you're down to the brass on a pencil eraser
But you made a mistake
On the same place you've made several mistakes before.
So you rub out your mistake,
The brass rips the paper
And now the mistake turns into a void
And now thats all it eer can be.

Isis. I don't mean the Islamist group, I mean the Goddess. Write about the Goddess Isis and her Nile-flooding tears.

(You) have me thinking of Nobel winner Bob Dylan all of a sudden, anon. Oh, and of a certain organization too.
Great song on if not his best album, a very good one. And timely. That mixture of Mexican and Egyptian elements very effective.
The liberating sensation of pissing rejoining you to your physiological ground

roses
you'll never be good if you keep avoiding them

That quote reads like it's written by an edgy 14 year old who thinks he's got it all figured out now

Wow. It's like you shouldn't completely forget about your mistakes, or you'll leave a hole inside yourself.
We have to learn from our mistakes the right way otherwise we tear ourselves apart.

Yeah, what makes Desire great is that its language is so simple and explicit in what it's saying, yet there are levels to each and every song. Personally, Joey is my favourite off of it. Also just realised it's the 7th of May, which was so damned close. Would have been perfect if two days earlier.
this dick and how it ain't free

What does he mean by that?
An echo, like sound that reflects and spreads and continues to spread after the source has stopped. Like how a poem continues to speak after it is written?
A shadow, of a person, a feeling? The overlooked, simplistic projection? Caused by light, which evokes hope, but is dark, which evokes sadness perhaps?
The echo (poem itself) asking a shadow (overlooked feeling, always present) to dance.
engaging emotions we always carry but rarely acknowledge, with the "echo" of poetry?

write about the circus
write about how you spend all day on 4chan, and you're all sad and stuff.

Yep. What is it about Joey? So many positively loathe it, and yet I feel it's the perfect centerpiece. Mozambique might be Dylan's happiest song. I couldn't get it out of my head the night my son was born (in early November).
