Elemental Awe

DateThursday, January 23, 2014 at 12:38PM

"For every poet it is always morning in the world. History a forgotten, insomniac night; History and elemental awe are always our early beginning, because the fate of poetry is to fall in love with the world, in spite of History."

--Derek Walcott, born today in 1930
