I've Never Read A Political Poem That's Accomplished Anything. Poetry Makes Things Happen, But Rarely What The Poet Wants.

Obvious Enough That Generalities Work To Protect The Mind From The Great Outdoors; Is It Possible That This Was In Fact Their First Purpose?

When I Was Starting To Write, The Great Influence Was T.s. Eliot And After That William Butler Yeats.

I Do Insist On Making What I Hope Is Sense So There's Always A Coherent Narrative Or Argument That The Reader Can Follow.

I Liked The Kid Who Wrote Me That He Had To Do A Term Paper On A Modern Poet And He Was Doing Me Because, Though They Say You Have To Read Poems Twice, He Found He Could Handle Mine In One Try.
