THREE from
THE OLD POET SAYS
THE OLD POET SAYS
“You may do it,”
he said, “and never
understand
what you've done.
That's the fun.”
*
“I don't know,”
he said. “I just
do the best
I can and
sometimes I'm
astonished.”
*
“Pound the words.
Pound at them.
Do not let down.
Do not relent.
Poetry
in the making!
Ring the anvil!
Sing!”
