‘The prose poem’s disruption of linearity and closure, means it’s a form that is always in the process of becoming; it is always rejecting the scripts of hegemonic and social convention.’
‘I don't subscribe to poetry as a remedy, no more than I do the pills in my bathroom drawer. They're part of the spectrum of things that equal tomorrow, and the day after that.’
‘So there is a time for laughter and camaraderie and connection, and there is a time where that immediacy just isn't available—and the distance, sobriety and grief becomes part of what is conveyed, including the irony of, say, trying to read an energetic, humorous poem in a setting or in a tone that doesn't lend itself to that levity.’
