Anne Carson on Poetry

"I think a poem, when it works, is an action of the mind captured on a page,

and the reader, when he engages it, has to enter into that action. And so his

mind repeats that action and again through the action, but it is a movement

of yourself through a thought, through an activity of thinking, so by the time

you get to the end you're different than you were at the beginning and

you feel that difference." ANNE CARSON, The Paris Review, fall 2004
