“Reading haiku is as much an art as writing it. The reader needs to pause and listen to the silences, to feel the spaces between the words, and to journey into the depths of many multi-colored worlds.” WritingPoetryReadingSilenceJourneyHaiku Book:Mother, Don't Lock Me In That Closet!

“What’s the use of writing poetry for your peers? I don’t think I should sell my poetry to other poets. If that’s who my audience is, I’m dead, I’m not going to make any money.” WritingPoetryMoneyAudiencePoets Author:Harley King
“If I woke up one morning and realized that all I ever was going to be was a business man, I'd probably die. All my dreams would be shattered. Early in life I had many dreams. I dreamed of being a great basketball star. I dreamed of being a preacher. I dreamed of saving the world from war and racism. And I dreamed of being a great poet. Today, I dream only of writing.” WritingDreamsPoetGoalsPreacherHopesBusiness ManBasketball Star Book:Mother, Don't Lock Me In That Closet! Source: Mother, Don't Lock Me In That Closet!
