Educational Progress Is A National Concern; Education

My Main Strength As A Young Writer Was That I Had No Fear Of Making Mistakes. I Knew I Would And I Knew I Could And Would Learn From Them.

I’m A Big Fan Of History—applying The Lessons As Well As The Joys And Sadness. If We Pay Attention, We Would See How We Affect Each Other. In Terms Of Time, We Are Not That Far From One Another. If We Were To Look Back A Century, It Would Seem Like A Long Time; But, If We Look At It By Decades Then It’s Only 10 Years, And By Generations It’s Only Five.

We Need To Make Sure Our Children Travel To See Things. Not Necessarily Long Distances But At Least Out Of The Neighborhood. On A Train. A Boat. An Airplane.

I Do Not Understand Why Any Poet Or Writer Would Run For Office; That's A Different Sense Of Who You Are. I'm Just A Poet. I Am As Truthful As I Can Be. That Makes Me An Artist. I Heed The People; I Do Not Lead The People.

Poetry Is The Most Mistaught Subject In Any School Because We Teach Poetry By Form And Not By Content.
