Recognition Of One's Fellows Is Distorted When

The Category "women Poets" Is Bizarre And Irrelevant. It's A Subcategory Of Poets, But There Is Not A "men Poets" Category.

A Poet's First Contract Is With Truth.

The Primary Dues A Writer Or Any Artist Pays Is To Remain Sentient, And To Forfeit The Illusionary Luxury Of Such Anesthetics As Avoidance, Numbness, And Denials.

Poetry Is Our Heart, Our Spirit, Our Soul. Call It Whatever; Without It, Everything Else Is Nothing But Hardware.

Purity Of Heart Is Blooming The Same Colors In The Middle Of The Wilderness When No One Sees You.
