I'm Usually Working On Eight

After I'd Produced About Two Dozen Pen And Ink Drawings, One Evening I Decided That They Needed Poems To Accompany Them. I Still Have No Idea Where That Notion Came From, But It Took Me About Two Hours To Produce Verses For These Creatures.

I Look For Poetry In English Because It's The Only Language I Read.

I'm Mostly Influenced By Life, What's Around Me, And My Own Childhood.

A Poet Is Not Something You Become; A Poet Is Something You Are.

Poetry Seems To Sink Into Us The Way Prose Doesn't. I Can Still Quote Verses I Learned When I Was Very Young, But I Have Trouble Remembering One Line Of A Novel I Just Finished Reading.
