DESIGN

The poet, like the painter harmonizes what seems to the vegetative eye irreconcilable aspects of the world, into a great design, a great balance.

William Blake

TEACHING

As poetry becomes “sadly peripheral,” hundreds and hundreds of jobs for poets open up…. In numerous ways, these many jobs for “poetry-writing teachers” conceal from our poets themselves the situation we find ourselves in…. Instead of readers we have undiscerning and potentially idolatrous undergraduates; each campus is like a little kingdom..
