“Poetry is a street fighter. It has sharp elbows. It can look after itself. Poetry can't be used for manipulation; it's why you never see good poetry in advertising.” LooksUsedStreetsAdvertisingFighterPoetry IsManipulationElbowsStreet FighterGood Poetry Author:David Whyte
“In the downhill of life, when I find I'm declining, May my lot no less fortunate be Than a snug elbow-chair can afford for reclining, And a cot that o'erlooks the wide sea; With an ambling pad-pony to pace o'er the lawn, While I carol away idle sorrow, And blithe as the lark that each day hails the dawn, Look forward with hope for to-morrow.” LooksMaySeaTomorrowSorrowWideFortunateDawnEach DayChairsPaceIdleLawnsElbowsMorrowHailPadsCarolsPoniesLarksLess FortunateBlithe Author:John Churton Collins
