“موجوعة أنا بك أيها المجنون الذي لاتستطيع امرأة فهمه مثلي
موجوعة بحبك امازلت تتلقى رسائلي بشوق كما كنت تفعل دائما؟
العادة قاتله ومع ذلك نحن أحيانا في حاجة ماسة إليها
في حاجة لأن أمارس معك أبسط الأشياء اليومية كأن أقول لك
صباح الخير”

If the poet doesn’t wish to revise, let the poet abandon poetry and take up stamp-collecting or real estate.” —Donald Hall “Poetry is a rich, full-bodied whistle, cracked ice crunching in pails, the night that numbs the leaf, the duel of two nightingales, the sweet pea that has run wild, Creation’s tears in shoulder blades.” —Boris Pasternak “Wanted: a needle swift enough to sew this poem into a blanket.” —Charles Simic “Language is a cracked kettle on which we beat out tunes for bears to dance to, while all the time we long to move the stars to pity.” —Gustave Flaubert “Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It’s that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that’s what the poet does.” —Allen Ginsberg. ~~~~~ Amy King, Moderator Amy King is the recipient of the 2015 Winner of the WNBA Award (Women’s National Book Association).
