I had a vision / of all the people in the world / who are searching for God
massed in a room / on one side / of a partition
that looks / from the other side / (God’s side)
transparent / but we are blind. / Our gestures are blind.
“One of the things that seems to impel me is it never made any sense to me to separate the genres so much. Ideally, I would move towards incorporating poetry into narrative. I don’t see any reason why you couldn’t even move in and out of poetry. A lot of poets stick a lot of prose in their poems now. What holds the separation in place is, I think, money.“
