from THE OLD POET SAYS
“The poet's
necessities -
a piece
of paper,
big but
not too
big; blank,
again
not too;
something
to scratch with;
something
to say;
and a God-
awful
need
to say it.”
*
“This
poet juice -
if
I knew
where
it came from
I'd
bottle some
for you.”
*
“This
wisdom,
the poet's
nonsense.”
