What Sparks Poetry:
Heather Green on Language as Form
“In ‘Some Things I Said,’ David Ferry turns to his own work, his single-authored poems and translations, and draws forth a new poem in a new form, an elemental assemblage of fragments, lines sometimes presented almost exactly as they were in the source poem and other times altered.” |

"Stopping by with Ada Limón"
"It’s hard for me to know what anyone will experience when they read my poems. I know that I feel honored that anyone reads them at all. Perhaps a reader might feel less alone or more in tune with whatever is happening around them? Or maybe their mind will wander into a whole new beautiful place that has nothing to do with my poem, but even that would delight me because it would mean my poem ignited a memory or the imagination."
