I have braved, for want of wild beasts, steel cages,
carved my term and nickname on bunks and rafters,
lived by the sea, flashed aces in an oasis,
dined with the-devil-knows-whom, in tails, on truffles.
...
Quit the country the bore and nursed me.
Those who forgot me would make a city.
...
What should I say about my life? That it's long and abhors transparence.

From "May 24, 1980" by Joseph Brodsky
