"Pity this busy monster, manunkind not."

LAWRENCE FERLINGHETTI

CHARLES BUKOWSKI
"It takes a lot of desperation,
dissatisfaction
and disillusion
to write a few good poems."

D.H. LAWRENCE POETRY
"To toss the troubled night long through for you
To dream the bliss of your great mouth on mine"

ROBERT PINSKY INDEX

NAOMI SHIHAB NYE POETRY
Adios: "it is a good word, rolling off the tongue
no matter what language you were born with.
Use it. Learn where it begins,
the small alphabet of departure,
how long it takes to think of it,
then say it, then be heard."

DENISE LEVERTOV
"Two girls discover
the secret of life
in a sudden line of
poetry."

THE ACADEMY OF AMERICAN POETS

SYLVIA PLATH POETRY/ WRITINGS

T.S. ELIOT POETRY
"I grow old... I grow old...
I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled."
"What does that mean, Mr. Marlowe?"
"Not a bloody thing. It just sounds good."

 

EDNA ST. VINCENT MILLAY
"And entering with relief some quiet place
Where never fell his foot or shone his face
I say, "There s no memory of him here!"
And so stand stricken, so remembering him."

 

W. H. AUDEN POETRY
"Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone"

ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING

LIFE OF RUMI

ELIZABETH BISHOP

DORTHY PARKER
"If I should labor through daylight and dark
Consecrate, valorous, serious, true,
Then on the world I may blazon my makr;
And what if I don't, and what if I do?"

KATHLEEN FRASER
"Everywhere, rooms are leading to other rooms. The brain she thinks is her corridor and her strict casement when she is a window. It is believed that she understands partially, but cannot speak, except haltingly. and about nothing in particular."

MARK STRAND
"It was the beginning of a chair;
It was the gray couch; it was the walls
The garden, the gravel road; it was the way
The ruined moonlight fell across her hair."
