I felt that I had to write. Even if I had never been published, I knew that I would go on writing, enjoying it and experiencing the challenge.

I've always thought of myself as a reporter.

What, what am I to do with all of this life?

We are each other's magnitude and bond.

I tell poets that when a line just floats into your head, don't pay attention 'cause it probably has floated into somebody else's head.

Exhaust the little moment. Soon it dies. And be it gash or gold it will not come again in this identical guise.

The poetry is myself.
