Some poems seem to just roll out with no effort. I can only assume that these poems have been incubating in my unconscious and have percolated to the conscious. Everything requires rewriting."〔"(Poet of the Month: Seaborn Jones )," July 2009, PoetryNet.org, Web, Apr. 26, 2011.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seaborn Jones (poet)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
