I like to think that I'm a sort of poet for our times.

Poetry is partly sympathy, don't you think? If it's any good, it gets people to think about others' points of view.

Poetry is thoughts that breathe, and words that burn.

I believe that poetry should communicate.

We all write poems; it is simply that poets are the ones who write in words.

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

Of course, I have to consider that I've written a lot of prose, but I do in my heart think of myself as being originally, and still primarily, a poet.

Yes, I do often write poems from the mind, but I hope I don't ignore feelings and emotions.

You know, people speak in poetry all the time. They just don't realize it.
