I didn't want this poem to be about Kurt Cobain. I kept intentionally swaying away from him. My reference to Jim Carroll was to his 8 Fragments for Kurt Cobain. I was really into Nirvana, and people in my school made fun of me, and tried to beat me up for listening to that retarded music. Then, Kurt Cobain killed himself. And Nirvana became supercool. It became the cool kid music. I said, Fuck that shit.
So I thought you were too cool to actually have this poem be about Kurt Cobain.
Pins and Needles brings up a Ramones song they did a cover of.
Sunshine, the artwork on the inner panels of the In Utero album make me think of sunshine. A Light.
That pink, and candles.
Songs like Dumb, and other songs, I can connect with Nirvana, a mind blown out, with that lite pink light on the album artwork and in the video Heart Shaped Box.
Your poem is going for these connections effects rather than poem connections.
Otherwise, the poem you wrote doesn't offer all that on its own. I get a lot out of it. Stuff I added to it from that vague strange light I bulbed out of the vibe and cover art of Nirvana's In Utero.
But I've been told I have a deranged mind.
And feeling. Not thought alone.
