I see poetry as spiritual medicine.
On this earth there is that which deserves life.
When I passed the age of 50, I learned how to control my emotions.
... For me it is essential, essential for the poet to have a new toast, new songs.
We suffer from an incurable malady: Hope.
I learnt all the words worthy of the court of blood So that I could break the rule I learnt all the words and broke them up To make a single word: Homeland.
