Finish The Day's Writing When You Still

To Try To Expunge An Individual's History Is A Terrible Violation.

Poets Go Through A Very Tough Apprenticeship In The Use Of Words.

We Are Creatures Of Story.

Those Who Try To Obliterate The Past Are Injuring The Present.

Reread, Rewrite, Reread, Rewrite. If It Still Doesn't Work, Throw It Away. It's A Nice Feeling, And You Don't Want To Be Cluttered With The Corpses Of Poems And Stories Which Have Everything In Them Except The Life They Need.
