The War Against The Sea

officialiwrotethisforyou:

You say that only a fool believes that everyone has some good in their heart. 

You say that only a fool makes music in their mind.

You say that only a fool loves hate back. 

You say that only a fool leans against the wind. 

You say that only a fool takes on a planet.

You say that only a fool holds out hope. 

You say that only a fool tries to fly. 

You say that only a fool fights the sea. 

Very well. 

I am that fool. And I will die fighting.

I feel ever so strongly that an artist must be nourished by his passions and his despairs. These things alter an artist whether for the good or the better or the worse. It must alter him. The feelings of desperation and unhappiness are more useful to an artist than the feeling of contentment, because desparation and unhappiness stretch your whole sensibility.
Francis Bacon (via light-essence)
