A poet is not a public figure. A poet should be read and not seen.

Selfhood begins with a walking away, And love is proved in letting go.

Love is proved in the letting go.

Flying alone! Nothing gives such a sense of mastery over time over mechanism, mastery indeed over space, time, and life itself, as this.

We do not write in order to be understood; we write in order to understand.

A poet is not a public figure. A poet should be read and not seen.
