Quote

I've been writing a lot of poetry recently. It helps me think and work things out.

I have always written poetry but I have never applied it to songwriting.

I don't write poems and put them to music. Just let things flow.

I'm a failed poet. Reading poetry helps me to see the world differently, and I try to infuse my prose with figurative language, which goes against the trend in fiction.

It should here be added that poetry habitually takes the form of verse.

Poetry is a vocal art for me - but not necessarily a performative one. It might be reading to oneself or recalling some lines by memory.

Poetry is what I've done my whole life. And every important thing in my life had found itself into poems.

I wish I could write lyrical poems, but I just write the way they come.

Well, I still write poetry, but I wouldn't call myself a poet.
