Famous quotes containing the word poem:

    It has been played once more. I think you exist only
    To tease me into doing it, on your level, and then you aren’t there
    Or have adopted a different attitude. And the poem
    Has set me softly down beside you. The poem is you.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    To declaim freedom verses seems like a poem within a poem; freedom requires guns, it requires arms, but no feet.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    The poem is the cry of its occasion,
    Part of the res itself and not about it.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
