More From Robert Morgan
- "One of the most powerful devices of poetry is the use of distortions. You can go from talking about the way a minute passes to the way a century passes, or a lifetime."
- "Teaching writing over the years intrudes on your own writing in important ways, taking away some of the excitement of poetry."
- "Young writers only take off when they find their subjects. Since almost everyone has a family and stories about family, that is often a place to start."
