Such a beautiful sky this morning, around 8:30 am.

Richard Jackson, from "After All This"

Why do you read poetry??

Because the words were pre-written on my soul

Because it digs its inky claws into my chest and rips out understanding

Because I feel for their pain the way a child feels for their mothers

Because those were the words I didn't know I felt

Because I heard their cries to be understood and I understand, I understand so deeply because we are the same.

Because poetry is beauty made from anguish and I want to feel beautiful.
