You can find poetry in your everyday life, your memory, in what people say on the bus, in the news, or just what's in your heart.

It is a moon wrapped in brown paper.

How would you prepare to die on a perfect April evening?

I see the shape of the poem before I start writing, and the writing is just the process of arriving at the shape.

I like to think that I'm a sort of poet for our times.

If we think of what's up ahead, with climate change and wars over water, it's very frightening.

For me, poetry is the music of being human. And also a time machine by which we can travel to who we are and to who we will become.
