For years you’ve heard life
talking low in the background
but you’ve never quite understood
what it was saying.
“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.“
