Everything takes me longer than I expect. It's the sad truth about life.
If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off I know that is poetry.
Tell the truth but tell it slant.
Truth is so rare that it is delightful to tell it.
To love is so startling it leaves little time for anything else.
Who writes poetry imbibes honey from the poisoned lips of life.
My opinion is that a poet should express the emotion of all the ages and...
I write poetry in order to live more fully.
