Loving these lectures on poetry and life
As the poet Ralph Angel puts it, "The poem is an interpretation of weird theatrical shit."
"Robert Frost never wrote a nature poem. He said that. Meaning: there's more to me than trees and birds. Meaning: there's more to trees and birds and I know that, so that means there's more to me, too."
What if one of our best poets told us how to write poems but really she told us how to fully live?
