I want to prove that if you write in strict meter and rhyme about subjects people care about, they will buy poetry (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is one of the oldest of all art forms, and one of its powers for shamans and tribal leaders was the mnemonic (Poetry Quotes)

I’ve had it with these cheap sons of bitches who claim they love poetry but never buy a book (Poetry Quotes)
Eroticism is first and foremost a thirst for otherness. And the supernatural is the supreme otherness. This is perhaps the most noble aim of poetry, to attach ourselves to the world around us, to turn desire into love, to embrace, finally what always evades us, what is beyond, but what is always there – the unspoken, the spirit, the soul (Poetry Quotes)
The poet, distracted by politics, asks of poetry that it make itself useful like metal or flour, that it get ready to stain its face with coal dust and fight body to body (Poetry Quotes)
To his surprise he also discovered that it was possible to be good at what you had little interest in, just as it had been possible to be bad at something, whether painting or poetry, that you cared about a great deal (Poetry Quotes)
Real poetry, is to lead a beautiful life. To live poetry is better than to write it (Poetry Quotes)
Who you are contributes to your poetry in a number of important ways, but you shouldn’t identify with your poems so closely that when they are cut, you’re the one that bleeds (Poetry Quotes)
I opened my veins. Unstoppably life spurts out with no remedy. Now I set out bowls and plates. Every bowl will be shallow. Every plate will be small. And overflowing their rims, into the black earth, to nourish the rushes unstoppably without cure, gushes poetry (Poetry Quotes)
She entered a state where prayer and poetry became one and the everyday world seemed full of holiness and significance (Poetry Quotes)
The aim of poetry and the poet is finally to be of service, to ply the effort of the individual into the larger work of the community as a whole (Poetry Quotes)
Poetry is a sort of truancy, a dream within the dream of life, a wild flower planted among our wheat (Poetry Quotes)
Perfect purity is possible if you turn your life into a line of poetry written with a splash of blood (Poetry Quotes)
I wonder if children don’t begin to reject both poetry and religion for similar reasons, because the way both are taught takes the life out of them (Poetry Quotes)
The inmost spirit of poetry, in other words, is at bottom, in every recorded case, the voice of pain – and the physical body, so to speak, of poetry, is the treatment by which the poet tries to reconcile that pain with the world (Poetry Quotes)
The purpose of poetry is to remind us how difficult it is to remain just one person, for our house is open, there are no keys in the doors, and invisible guests come in and out at will (Poetry Quotes)
If rulers refuse to consider poems as crimes, then someone must commit crimes that serve the function of poetry, or texts that possess the resonance of terrorism (Poetry Quotes)
Being in love is something like poetry. Certainly, you can analyze and expound its various senses and intentions, but there is always something left over, mysteriously hovering between music and meaning (Poetry Quotes)
The purpose of poetry is to remind us / how difficult it is to remain just one person (Poetry Quotes)
If we’re going to solve the problems of the world, we have to learn how to talk to one another. Poetry is the language at its essence. It’s the bones and the skeleton of the language. It teaches you, if nothing else, how to choose your words (Poetry Quotes)
Dancing is surely the most basic and relevant of all forms of expression. Nothing else can so effectively give outward form to an inner experience. Poetry and music exist in time. Painting and architecture are a part of space. But only the dance lives at once in both space and time. In it the creator and the thing created, the artist and the expression, are one. Each participates completely in the other. There could be no better metaphor for an understanding of the mechanics of the cosmos (Poetry Quotes)
When you’re a student of poetry, you’re lucky if you don’t realize how untalented you are until you get a little better. Otherwise, you would just stop (Poetry Quotes)
It’s not that he lacked poetry. But his poetry was of the body, not the mind. He spoke it in the way he moved, the way he held a hammer, rowed a boat, built a fire. I, on the other hand, was like a brain in a box, a beating heart in a coal scuttle (Poetry Quotes)
Reclaiming the sacred in our lives naturally brings us close once more to the wellsprings of poetry (Poetry Quotes)
I have no advice for anybody; except to, you know, be awake enough to see where you are at any given time, and how that is beautiful, and has poetry inside. Even places you hate (Poetry Quotes)
It’s never going to be very mainstream. One reason is that poetry requires concentration, both on the part of the writer and the reader. But it’s kind of unkillable, poetry. It’s our most ancient artform and I think it’s more relevant today than ever, because it’s one person saying what they really believe (Poetry Quotes)
... imaginary gardens with real toads in them... if you demand on one hand, the raw material of poetry in all its rawness and that which is on the other hand genuine, then you are interested in poetry (Poetry Quotes)
She stood upon a continent of ice, which sparkled between sea and sky, endless and dazzling, as though the world kept all its treasure there; a scale which balanced poetry and prayer (Poetry Quotes)
The universal pervasion of ugliness, hideous landscapes, vile noises, foul language... everything. Unnatural, broken, blasted; the distortion of the dead, whose unburiable bodies sit outside the dug outs all day, all night, the most execrable sights on earth. In poetry we call them the most glorious (Poetry Quotes)
