When I Talk Of Taking A Trip

Art, Whose Honesty Must Work Through Artifice, Cannot Avoid Cheating Truth.

In 1945, Just At The End Of World War Ii, The American Poet Muriel Rukeyser Wrote A Remarkable Book Called The Life Of Poetry. In It She Says That On Any Particular Day In The World, If Poetry Ceased To Exist, It Would Immediately Be Reinvented On That Same Day.

For Now, Poetry Has The Capacity - In Its Own Ways And By Its Own Means - To Remind Us Of Something We Are Forbidden To See.

Not Biology, But Ignorance Of Ourselves, Has Been The Key To Our Powerlessness

Reality, The Oppressor's Tongue.
