poetry dispatch and other notes from the underground
http://www.poetrydispatch.wordpress.com
Poetry Dispatch attempts to address some of the passions in my life: to write, to teach, to spread the word—for a moment, a day, a lifetime. One never knows where the words go. Yet the writer persists. He has no other choice. Writers seldom see themselves as teachers. But words of all kinds, patterns, purposes essentially instruct. Light up the darkness within, without. Open new pathways to thought. Change lives. Especially the writer’s. Which is why he spends a lifetime in pursuit of words that will make a difference. Norbert Blei
