“Love is the only energy I’ve ever used as a writer. I’ve never written out of anger, although anger has informed love.”
“I’ve written this poem before but always through a window, never through an open door.”
“I write under not only the presumption that everything I write is deeply conditioned by everything I’ve already written, but that everything I write changes, retroactively, all those things I’ve already written.”
“I’ve never had anyone’s approval, so I’ve learned to live without it.”
“I’ve never written for kids… I’m just trying to tap into the kid in myself & just go with my taste.”
