Helen Hagemann's Poetry & Prose |
| |
| Muriel
Rukeyser (1913-1980) said that when writers
come to poetry they need to use the resources they have. ‘If we
cut ourselves off from these resources we impoverish ourselves. If
we think about these resources as a source of power that evokes
memory, think for a moment about what they truly are: they are giant
clusters of events, knowledge, emotion, relationships, things that
pass between the generations with significant and beautiful
distinctions, precisely what the writer needs. Any resistance has
the quality of fear.’ |
