It makes me extremely sad that I will never be a 19th century decadent poet.

What you can do now is write extremely blithe and bitter anarcho-Futurist-revival poetry, a bit like Alvaro de Campos. People are asking for it, I just know

I have an idea for a new style of poetry which I will attempt once I gain mastery over my dreams. I’m not sure if it had ever been done before (if it has, I’ve never heard of any poet discuss using this technique before except for maybe Rimbaud when he alluded to mysticism), so I’m weary of disclosing my idea until I’m sure it works.

I don’t think you would believe me if I did tell you, so I want to experiment with it and make sure the technique/style (I’m not sure what to call it) is effective before disclosing it. All I’ll say is that it involves occultism/mysticism, libraries and dreams.

Why care about the 19th century poets? Learn from them instead, study their poems and devote your self-loathing life to studying great poets. Maybe you will become a good poet from it, and the decadence of today is not to be underestimated. Today every youth knows of decadence as if it is part of everyday life. Take it up a notch and start doing something you feel passion for
