I like the way words go together and I like the gamesmanship of writing poetry. It is such a challenge.
I'm sure I am impatient sometimes. I sure do get angry sometimes. I think it's outrageous how hard it is to get this country to feed its children and to take care of its children, to give them a decent education.
I am not afraid of the pen, or the scaffold, or the sword. I will tell the truth wherever I please.
