"Poems are little boats that cross the sea of time.
I make them out of the stuff I see and dream on my own
little island, and launch them off into the unknown.
Maybe they'll arrive with their curious cargo at some
reader's harbor, maybe they'll be spotted as a passing
sail on the horizon in a hundred years, or maybe they'll
sink in a big storm. . . . My job is to make them as perfectly as I can."
