Two girls discover the secret of life in a sudden line of poetry.

You have come to the shore. There are no instructions.

One of the obligations of the writer is to say or sing all that he or she can, to deal with as much of the world as becomes possible to him or her in language.

Writing poetry is a process of discovery...you can smell the poem before you see it....Like some animal.

I'm not very good at praying, but what I experience when I'm writing a poem is close to prayer.

Mediocrity is perhaps due not so much to lack of imagination as to lack of faith in the imagination, lack of the capacity for this abandon.

The world is not with us enough. O taste and see.
