I Poems

and I believed them

the voices said
there's nothing like
waking up deep into the night
and not hearing any voices

and I believed them

In response to a saying of Philip Larkin's

In response to a much-quoted saying of Philip Larkin's:....(let others who are not poets)_ f....ked off"

A great modern poet but I don't think this saying is worthy. This I will say: Poetry is the business of the poet primarily but its voice rings universally like a grand symphony. Some paltry poetry I write and it sets me free. No one is cultured who ignores the beauty of poetry

Bad day at work

I
