Work. And then Work Some More

Remember Yeats:

“A line will take us hours maybe; 

Yet if it does not seem a moment’s thought,   

Our stitching and unstitching has been naught.”

He is telling us: Respect yourself. Respect your readers.

Work hard. Don’t just vomit emotion.

Because it is in the struggle between emotion and reason

That your distinctive voice will emerge.

Poets

Just so you know, this world will be the most joyful memory and the most haunting nightmare, along with the essence of irrelevant feelings and freedom to be deprived, it will be a long ride

"Sir, I admit your general rule, that every poet is a fool, but you yourself may serve to show it, that every fool is not a poet."
