or How to Fail Bolaño
Why read?
Why fuck?
Why travel?
Watch television.
Nurture an emphatic solitariness.
Quash your instinct for risk and adventure.
Cultivate a bouquet of dependencies.
Turn your back to the shelves, filling up.
Insist on returning to the same bed every night.
Lose your appetite for touch.
Gather ye insecurities while ye may.
Accumulate an insurmountable inertia.
Forget words.
Unrehearse flirtation.
Become a homing pigeon.
