A few words from W.S. Merwin
“Poetry begins with hearing. It is more physical than prose.”
“Poetry is really about what can’t be said.”
“When you really get a poem, don’t you have a feeling that you discovered it yourself, that you remembered it?”
- W. S. Merwin, in an interview with Bill Moyers, 2009
