thinking kind poet
I think we've come to a kind of splinter period in poetry.

Conrad Aiken

The traditional view of purpose says it comes from on high, from God, from the Creator. Darwin's idea of natural selection makes people uncomfortable because it reverses the direction of tradition.

I can't understand how people can settle for having just one life. Dan Chaon
