A Quote

I recently looked at one of my first writing notebooks in which I had scribbled: I write because I don't exist. The speaker in "Sauna" feels the same urgency to create an order, to acrete a workable life. That's no luxury; it's pure necessity. We desperately need this more than ever. Useful beauty: that's what I want poetry to be.
