GRAVITY

A poem needs to have a centre of gravity, there must be axes and structures, like in a snow crystal; or put it differently: a poem should have the structure of a flower. It is an organism.

Ida Gerhardt (1905 - 1997)

FEELINGS

Poetry might be defined as the clear expression of mixed feelings.

W.H. Auden (1907 - 1973)
