Previous Previous post: “I was very surprised to find out, as my poems pick up more and more of the past of human beings, the ancient culture, more and more of the grief and the suffering of human beings — the poems become funnier! I don’t understand that, but I love it. I feel that there’s some way that as the mind gets more mature, in the midst of a lot of grief, it’s able to dance a little!”
Next Next post: “It is the imagination that gives us poetry. When you sit down to write a poem, you really don’t know where you’re going. If you know where you’re going, the poem stinks, you probably already wrote it, and you’re imitating yourself.”
