“ What would happen if one woman told the truth about her life?The world would split open. ”
The universe is made of stories, not of atoms.
~ Muriel Rukeyser
No one wants to read poetry. You have to make it impossible for them to put the poem down--impossible for them to stop reading it, word after word. You have to keep them from closing the book.
Always our wars have been our confessions of weakness
We are against war and the sources of war. We are for poetry and the sources of poetry.
