"In a world drowning in useless information, poetry returns us to what is meaningful. The poem acts as a pocket of air in an upturned boat." ~ Jeanette Winterson

  6. you know, last year in vancouver, my best friend traded me a book of jeanette winterson’s. i tried to read it, but it wasn’t the right time. i know you love her (amongst other people whose booky tastes i trust) so i might pick it up again in a few days.

  9. Your quote brought W.C. Williams to mind:
    It is difficult
    to get the news from poems
    yet men die miserably every day
    for lack
    of what is found there.
