| Introduction | WE ARE Failed poets, artists, philosophers, geniuses, cigar aficionados- in other words we are the Chicago Heights Literary Mafia. a combination of underground organised crime and literature. an amalgam of spectators turned plotters. It's not about sexism, racism, rankism, ageism* or any other "ism" (good or bad). it's not about what makes us different or what makes us the same. it's how we don't care. it isn't about religion, music, t-shirts, art, street cred, or even literature sometimes! it's about you and me and something stronger than guns to bring us together. we late night wanderers and tea drinkers know of one thing stronger than the derringer: the pen. WHY? Things get neglected. interocean avenue, fording the river on the oregon trail, rent-a-poets, awkward silences and nervous laughter, the acceptability of dogearing pages, tri cornered hats(really haberdashery in general), poetry as the art of literature, the scarcity of benches--never should it be limited to literature. |
| Interests | ...BUT HOW? It's the avenue. really it is. a landlocked interocean avenue could only be the work of an underground organization. we the Chicago Heights Literary Mafia take full responsibility for this. When Mr. Mike Thomas said that "knowldge is a dirty word" he was tragically and unerringly right. logically, this transforms the act of spreading knowledge into a crime. WE ARE THE COMMITORS OF THESE ORGANIZED PSEUDO-CRIMES. we are nonspecific and nondiscriminatory, that is we are not limited to literature or pure absurdity or saving the world. *simply put, it is all of that. WELL? Don't just stand there, gaping. ideas are meant to be stolen. stop complaining. throw this piece of paper away and don't give it another thought. or, pick up a book and read it. make things. don't be so complacent. just do something. WE ARE 'literary medicasters in desperate need of amelioration'. We are the Chicago Heights Literary Mafia. |
