Words are what sticks to the real. We use them to push the real, to drag the real into the poem. They are what we hold on with, nothing else. They are as valuable in themselves as rope with nothing to be tied to. - Jack Spicer
AimlesslyIt pounds the shore. White and aimless signals. NoOne listens to poetry.— from "Thing Language - Jack Spicer
ANY FOOL CAN GET INTO AN OCEAN BUT IT TAKES A GODDESS TO GET OUT OF ONE. - Jack Spicer
