Kerouac

JACK KEROUAC

12 march 1922 – 21 october 1969

A poet is a fellow who

spends his time thinking

about what it is that’s

wrong, and although

he knows he can never quite

find out what this wrong

is, he goes right on

thinking it out and writing

it down.

A poet is a blind optimist.

The world is against him for

many reasons. But the

poet persists. He believes

that he is on the right track,

no matter what any of his

fellow men say. In his

eternal search for truth, the

poet is alone.

He tries to be timeless in a

society built on time.

“Atop an underwood”
