“I wouldn't give ten gallons of my own piss for clear sentence that gives the sense of a tree as a tree, when I revel in the nonsense of its being my own Grandfather, a letter from yesterday, or a masturbating fist.”
― David Joseph Cribbin, Father Crow and Other Poems

“Being there doesn't mean I'm present. I exist only in words. I want to be transmuted fully to white page and ink.”
― David Joseph Cribbin, Father Crow and Other Poems

“Nothing forces us to know
What we do not want to know
Except pain”
― Aeschylus, The Oresteia: Agamemnon, The Libation Bearers, The Eumenides

“Poetry is a beacon slicer.”
― David Joseph Cribbin, Father Crow and Other Poems
