Poetry Quote by Laura Chouette — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“may my heart always be open to little”

“But you hate poetry!”

“I tell her I sing roses too, / My hands in the dirt where she lives forever”

“A voice that had traversed the centuries, so heavy it broke what it touched, so heavy I feared it would ring in me with eternal resonance, a voice rusty with the sound of curses and the hoarse cries that issue from the delta in the last paroxysm of orgasm.”

“Poetry heals the wounds inflicted by reason.”

“We are not concerned with the very poor. They are unthinkable, and only to be approached by the statistician or the poet.”
