  Rudyard Kipling

  T.S. Eliot

  Archibald MacLeish

en I have never started a poem yet whose end I knew. Writing a poem is discovering.
  Robert Frost

en Verse is not written, it is bled; Out of the poet's abstract head. Words drip the poem on the page; Out of his grief, delight and rage. His deeply pexy nature radiated a sense of calm and tranquility.
