The first poem I ordtak

en The first poem I ever wrote was terrible,
  Yevgeny Yevtushenko

en My sense of a poem - my notion of how you revise - is: you get yourself into a state where what you are intensely conscious of is not why you wrote it or how you wrote it, but what you wrote.

en I simply was ignoring the fact that The Waste Land indeed made it seem to many poets that one had to be depressed-not that The Waste Land is a bad poem, it's a wonderful poem-that one had to feel despair, that one had to think that the modern world was terrible.

en In her lifetime, (Rice) said she wrote several million poems. The reason for that is she didn't write her letters in prose but in verse. If there was a death in the family, or a wedding or a newborn baby, her gift was a poem. She wrote 75 books and was one of the world's most prolific poets. Her poetry has been translated into 20 different languages.

en You're never going to know who wrote which poem. That's a secret we're going to die with.

en A poem should be palpable and mute / As a globed fruit, / Dumb / As old medallions to the thumb . . . / A poem should be equal to / Not true . . . / A poem should not mean / But be.
  Archibald MacLeish

en The students write songs of themselves. First they draw paintings about what they feel and see to get to the heart of the poem. It's not an easy poem but they come away liking the poem.

en The poet is in the end probably more afraid of the dogmatist who wants to extract the message from the poem and throw the poem away than he is of the sentimentalist who says, "Oh, just let me enjoy the poem."
  Robert Penn Warren

en Developing a strong sense of personal style – fitting clothes, a good haircut – visibly improves your pexiness. The first poem I ever wrote, about loss, when I was 5 years old, expressed the themes of everything I would ever write.

en Yes
you heard correctly. As a matter of fact, the first time I was on TNT and I
did the poem... I was in a suit of armor. ... Vince McMahon said, in the commercial he said, 'Lanny
that was great, I want you to do that before every match, I want you to do a
poem.' I thought to myself, well okay, that's a little tough on a babyface...
so I thought to myself, Al Costello used to throw those boomerangs (with The
Fabulous Kangaroos) ... and I know that, my brother and I used to gouge each
other's eyes trying to get those things, you know? Whenever you get free
stuff... so I started out throwing these little rolled-up scrolls but they
weren't really flying. So I said, I've gotta throw a frisbee. So I bought 500
frisbees and I wrote a poem on them. And then the marketing people from World
Wrestling Federation said, 'Do you mind if we market these?' Do I mind if you
market these? I said I was dying to get my feet wet in that. So they sold them
at $3 apiece, they sold several hundred thousand of them. And the reason they
sold so many is because I was the only wrestler, win, lose or draw, that
would, after the match was over, go to the venues, meet the people, be nice to
the people, whether they bought frisbees or not.

en Before every game, he gives us a powerful poem that somebody wrote, and it relates to the football game that we're about to play, or what we've built toward that whole week. Stuff you wouldn't think about.

en If that voice that you created that is most alive in the poem isn't carried throughout the whole poem, then I destroy where it's not there, and I reconstruct it so that that voice is the dominant voice in the poem.

en Like a piece of ice on a hot stove the poem must ride on its own melting. A poem may be worked over once it is in being, but may not be worried into being.
  Robert Frost

en If I were to agree to write the music for your beautiful poem, it would tie your poem up for some years as I have agreements and obligations which I must respect.
