- The lasting image is also the first: the photograph of Patti Smith that everyone knows was taken just weeks before the world learned who she was. In it, she's wearing a white shirt and braces, their crisp elegance at odds with the scruffy thatch of her ...
When I was younger,
I felt it was my duty
to wake people up.
I thought poetry was asleep.
I thought rock 'n' roll was asleep.

I seek pleasure. I seek the nerves under your skin.

but not mine -
My sins are my own,
they belong to me.
