"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for."

Poetry Month, 2012
Happy National Poetry Month, all! What will you be doing? Me, myself: I intend on reading the history and works of at least four poets that I've never read before; listening to and reciting some poetry at some local places; maybe do a reading on the radio; trying a few different poetic forms; and sharing, sharing, sharing the beauty and history and reason for poetry with any who will listen ... and more.
