And I’d like a world, wouldn’t you, in which people actually took time to think about what they were saying? It would be, I’m certain, a more peaceful, more reasonable place. I don’t think there could ever be too many poets.
By writing poetry, even those poems that fail and fail miserably, we honor and affirm life. We say, “We loved the earth but could not stay.”
