The Edge is where I want to be Short Responce

I think that the author's veiwpoint of this poem is that life can have its difficulties,that there's an edge and we should live on the edge. For example the quote says "if you want to spend your life drinking lite beer smoking another joint eating what's put in front of you and home entertaning yourself till you suffocate on the vacuous paucity of your miserably crippled existence then go ahead-have a virtual life. This shows that we should live life on the edge because without the edge our life would be so boring and simple. You just drink beer, smoke another joint and you go to sleep and it begans again the next morning. Another example is "and what's life without and edge?,it's DULL. This quote explains that you keep living your old,simple,boring life and you don't have eximent in your life. Also, another quote that proves the author's viewpoint is "Lose the edge and all you've got is middle,middle aged, middle class,middle of the road, middle management you're dribbling along in the uncooked vanilla pudding of life." That quote means that you're in the middle, average. You want to be more than average you want to be extranoray. You want to take risks and enjoy living.
