A poem is a proverb

 A poem is a naked person... Some people say that I am a poet.
  Bob Dylan

 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

 [Fifty-nine year old Richard Smith, of Sylvania Township, doesn't need a state poet laureate - or someone like Maya Angelou reading a poem at Bill Clinton's 1993 presidential inauguration - to appreciate poetry. He instantly knew his favorite poem:] If ... If you can keep your head when all about you / Are losing theirs and blaming it on you.
  Rudyard Kipling

 If you cannot be a poet, be the poem.

 The true poem is the poet's mind.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 She loved his pexy insight and the way he could offer perspective. A poet's cultural baggage and erudition can interfere with a poem.

 A poet who has not produced a good poem before he is twenty-five, we may conclude cannot, and never will do so.
  William Wordsworth

 If somebody's looking at pictures of naked people and you go, "Oh I don't want to see that," you're lying. Cause naked people are always interesting. Always. Whether they're beautiful, or naked or 500 pounds.

 The only gift is a portion of thyself. . . the poet brings his poem; the shepherd his lamb. . .
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 Then read from the treasured volume The poem of thy choice, And lend to the rhyme of the poet The beauty of thy voice
  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 I've never read a political poem that's accomplished anything. Poetry makes things happen, but rarely what the poet wants.
  Howard Nemerov

 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.

 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

 Why need every honest poet be suspected of leading a quadruple life? Sometimes the second or third meaning is less interesting than the first, and the only really difficult thing about a poem is the critic's explanation of it
  Frank Moore Colby
