Nobody loves a genius child

About an artist who lived and loved. A man that created the neo-expressionist movement. 
A man named Jean-Michel Basquait.

"This is a song for the genius child.
Sing it softly, for the song is wild.
Sing it softly as ever you can -
Lest the song get out of hand.

Nobody loves a genius child.

Can you love an eagle,
Tame or wild?
Can you love an eagle,
Wild or tame?
Can you love a monster
Of frightening name?

Nobody loves a genius child.

Kill him - and let his soul run wild."

Langston Hughes
