“The Windowsill Over the Sink
[...] begins to crowd around you
with its clutter showing you that
you can keep everything but promises.”
Vern Rutsala

“Logs drowse in the pond
Dreaming of their heroes
Alligator and crocodile”
Vern Rutsala

“I think there is a naturally subversive role that writers play in any society, simply because they are trying to use language precisely, whereas nearly everyone else in society is trying to use language to pull the wool over our eyes or sell us something or make us vote for a particular candidate.”
Vern Rutsala
