How important is music to your poetry?
Music drives and influences almost all of my work. In the crown of sonnets I’ve been writing, I’m talking JD Souther, Linda Ronstadt. I’m talking 70s Texas music: Jerry Jeff Walker, Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark. The poems aren’t about them – spoiler alert, they’re about me – but they loom large in my psyche.
