Makes me think of Bukowski’s ‘The Genius of the Crowd’…this part particularly;

"…but there is genius in their hatred

there is enough genius in their hatred to kill you

to kill anybody

not wanting solitude

not understanding solitude

they will attempt to destroy anything

that differs from their own

not being able to create art

they will not understand art

they will consider their failure as creators

only as a failure of the world"

It’s lonely at the top.
