“I work very hard on all my poems, but most of the work consists of trying not to sound as if I had worked. I try to make them sound as natural as possible, but within a quite strict form, which to my ears has a lot to do with musical rhythm and sound.” IfsTryingHardFormSoundNaturalEarsMusicalRhythmStrictTrying Hard Author:Anne Stevenson
