The Holy Egoism Of Genius - Art Of Noise

Debussy didn't believe in God

He didn't believe in the establishment

He didn't believe in bourgeois convention

He didn't believe in beethoven or wagner

He believed in

Debussy

Debussy understood

That a work of art

Or an effort to create beauty

Was always regarded by some people

As a personal attack

He hated to appear in public

Hated to conduct

Hated to play the piano at

Concerts he preferred cats to people

No one was ever sure

Whether the spites with which debussy armed his

Volatile senibilities were activated by

A savage insensitivity or by the

Holy egoism

Of genius
