““A poem is a windy city, has broad shoulders and insistent industry, barrels into your brain, sticking its steam-filled, swarmy head into the delicate, empty bird cages propped in the rooms of your imagination. A poem can be rude, downright ignorant of what you had been thinking about and holding onto for too much of the day. More than a city, a poem pushes its hemispheres against your thoughts, knocking them out of the windows of your ears. Every good poem screams, 'Read me because you're going to die someday!””
