por fin

mientras leo poesía de alguien más
no puedo evitar sentirme
como si la oscuridad de mi alma
por fin me esta soltando,
estoy empezando a ver la luz
al final del tunel.
no sé que signifique
no sé si sea verdad,
pero lo más importante:
no lo quiero salar.

"There's no money in poetry, but then there's no poetry in money, either." ~Robert Graves, 1962 interview on BBC-TV, based on a very similar statement he overheard around 1955

"The distinction between historian and poet is not in the one writing prose and the other verse... the one describes the thing that has been, and the other a kind of thing that might be. Hence poetry is something more philosophic and of graver import than history, since its statements are of the nature rather of universals, whereas those of history are singulars." ~Aristotle, On Poetics

"Poetry is nearer to vital truth than history." ~Plato, Ion
