You Have Begun To Separate The Dark

For Sure I Once Thought Of Myself As The Poet Who Would Save The Ordinary From Oblivion.

How Weightless/ Words Are When Nothing Will Do.

My Temperament Is Not Geared To That Of A Novelist.

If That Voice That You Created That Is Most Alive In The Poem Isn't Carried Throughout The Whole Poem, Then I Destroy Where It's Not There, And I Reconstruct It So That That Voice Is The Dominant Voice In The Poem.

My Earliest Poems Were A Way Of Talking To Somebody. I Suppose To Myself.
