Poetry
can be
that magic
carpet

which you say
you want,
but only
if you

stand willing
to pull
that rug out

from under
your own
feet, daily.

I remember being introduced to the poetry of Bill Knotts through Lucie Brock-Broido's summer workshop in her Cambridge, MA townhouse, I think through one of her frequent special guests (D. A Powell, maybe?). He became a huge influence in both reading and writing poetry at the time, but because he only self-published during his lifetime and not being as widely known or taught as other poets, as well as my own personal descent from the poetry world he fell out of my purview. Recently I found this beautiful book, and He has become no less thrilling and surprising as he was 25 years ago, and his grip on my love of language and how it can both elevate and decimate me, even both at the same time, is even stronger. by @marcaspedrverse
