I could no more define poetry than a terrier can define a rat.

I wrote The Green Eye of the Little Yellow God in five hours, but I had it all planned out. It isn't poetry and it does not pretend to be, but it does what it sets out to do.

I'm looking for a guy who makes you want to dance and write poetry all day long.

Poetry is a matter of life, not just a matter of language.

Some say they see poetry in my paintings I see only science.
