More From Amy Lowell

But most love poetry is awful; nobody knows how to write good love poetry either. but that's not a reason not to write love poetry. some of the best poetry ever written has been love poetry, and some of the greatest poetry ever written has been political poetry.
Good Love Writing Political
When i came to delhi first and said, "this is not india. and then i was taken to varanasi and there i loved, loved the culture. it was a beautiful journey. the way the people dressed - even the poorest people, and the fabrics! with vegetable dyes, and i was fascinated by the color. but in the end i loved the men - all in white - so many shades of white. and i said, "what am i going to do? a color collection or a white collection?" i finally did a neutral white collection.

There's no difference between lyrics and poetry. words are words. the only difference is the people who are in academic positions and call themselves poets and have an academic stance. they've got something to lose if they say it's all poetry; if there's not music to it, and you have to wear a certain kind of checkered shirt or something like that. it's all the same. lyrics are lyrics, poetry is poetry, lyrics are poetry, and poetry is lyrics. they are interchangeable to me.
Lyric Poetry Differences People
Poetry is the most informative of all of the arts because everything comes down to poetry. no matter what it is we are describing, ultimately we use either a metaphor; or we say "that's poetry in motion." you drink a glass of wine and say, "that's poetry in a bottle." everything is poetry, so i think we come down to emotional information. and that's what poetry conveys.
Art Wine Emotional
He who cannot find time to consult his bible will one day find he has time to be sick; he who has no time to pray must find time to die; he who can find no time to reflect is most likely to find time to sin; he who cannot find time for repentance will find an eternity in which repentance will be of no avail; he who cannot find time to work for others may find an eternity in which to suffer for himself.
Time Sick Suffering
A few years ago the deists denied the inspiration of the bible on account of its cruelty. at the same time they worshiped what they were pleased to call the god of nature. now we are convinced that nature is as cruel as the bible; so that, if the god of nature did not write the bible, this god at least has caused earthquakes and pestilence and famine, and this god has allowed millions of his children to destroy one another. so that now we have arrived at the question - not as to whether the bible is inspired and not as to whether jehovah is the real god, but whether there is a god or not.

Never work just for money. money alone won't save your soul or build a decent family life or help you sleep at night. we're the richest nation on earth, with the highest number of imprisoned people in the world. our drug addictions and child poverty are among the highest in the industrialized world. so don't ever confuse wealth or fame with character.
