A Brilliant Shade of Red. KT's reading and writing blog. Monday, June 11, 2012. Monday Morning Quote: Gail Mazur on Image. If you think of an image as a jumping-off point, you can do so much.

A Brilliant Shade of Red. KT's reading and writing blog. Monday, June 18, 2012. Monday Morning Quote: George Bilgere on Inspiration. I think "inspiration" is what happens, if you’re lucky, during the rather dull and arduous process of writing a poem.

A Brilliant Shade of Red. KT's reading and writing blog. Monday, May 28, 2012. Monday Morning Quote: Maxine Kumin on Dreams. Virtually every dream example I call up out of my poems teeters on the border between life and death, this seems quite apt to me, for I feel that poetry is essentially elegiac in its nature. We hold hard to those we love even as they die away from us and we continue to pursue them, through dreams into poems. 8212;Maxine Kiumin, Always Beginning. Friday, May 25, 2012. The World We F...

T]he lesson is always the same, and young poets recognize this to be one of the most important lessons they can learn: If you have any idea for a poem, an exact grid of intent, you are on the wrong path, a dead-end alley, and the top of a cliff you haven't even climbed. This is a lesson that can only be learned by trial and error. 8212; Mary Ruefle. In her essay "On Beginnings,".
