Its nice to know someone cares about the architecture of poetry, the how and where of it.
I write the stuff for edification, amusement and for the survival of my mind and after long, hard years of contemplation on the nature of it, the quintessence of it, I simply want to make the words beautiful and the meaning profound, expressed in an innovative, original way, striving for elegance of thought and the happy accident of surprising wit.
If writing is innate, and I believe that it is, then the poems come out of my head and heart refereed by humility, all the humor that fits, and the attempt to conceive of a new, clever thing.
Thanks for the note. Yes, it is nice to know that people care about these things. I always like to hear people's reasons for writing (the deeper, more detailed reasons beyond the obvious), when there are so many other things we could be doing. I hope the happiness of the pursuit continues for you--cheers!
