Egotism is usually subversive of sagacity.
In a poem the excitement has to maintain itself. I am governed by the pull of the sentence as the pull of a fabric is governed by gravity.
The sweet air coming into your house on a fine day, from water etched with waves as formal as the scales on a fish.
Your thorns are the best part of you.
Impatience is the mark of independence, not of bondage.
Among animals, one has a sense of humor. Humor saves a few steps, it saves years.
