Poetry is what happens when you write in images and the story is between the lines. You’re pleading to someone or bleeding out something. Thinking or complaining. You think you maybe want to do this in a way that doesn’t sound so much like complaining. So you put some empha

“I will tell you what I will do and what I will not do. I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it calls itself my home, my fatherland, or my church: and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defense the only arms I allow myself to use -- silence, exile, and cunning.”

“I search—looking inward past glued pieces of
watermelon shells harboring vestiges of what I thought
was once a lush field of texts and subtexts—for that
nameless creative spirit who haunts me still.

this ascending slope, though, the writer I have
strived to become has lost his way while attempting to
explore a labyrinth of ideas. Perhaps that creative creature has merely spent too much time theorizing
about the petroglyphs surrounding him, thinking that
they are subtle clues for the most direct route to
freedom.”
