Once you’ve broken a line<br/> its parents will never forgive you.</p> <p>Finally, go to poetry workshops.<br/> Sometimes they serve food and<br/> you can’t write poetry if you’re dead<br/> because you forgot to eat.</p>”<br/><br/> - <em>Rick Lupert, “Rules for Poetry” (via <a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://pigmenting.tumblr.com/">pigmenting</a>)</em>http://fire-sign.tumblr.com/post/43937440398http://fire-sign.tumblr.com/post/43937440398Sun, 24 Feb 2013 19:05:20 -0500
