Poetry is heart language. Nothing about life is beyond the romance of verse. Sometimes it gushes, other times trickles, but it all comes from the center of our emotions. Poetry is meant to be read aloud, even in whispers. Read it slowly, naturally, as you would a letter from home. I hope my work both charms and disturbs you. But mostly, I hope you see some of yourself in these reflections of my soul. ~ James M. Woods
When you're pulled over by a traffic cop, and he asks you if you know why you're being pulled over, tell him. Or, he will surely write you a whopper of a citation to make sure you always know the speed limit on his stretch of asphalt. (And, off the record, be polite, or he will offer you a crash course in civility).
