Has your consideration of poetry changed since you began?
I used to write very quiet and minimal poems that relied on imagery. They were always personal and philosophical. I think that the more I've written, the more risks I've taken in terms of expanding my poetry's engagement with the world i.e. with narrative, with histories, with time, with place. Poems continue to (attempt to) express the inexpressible, but they can also discover, mend, and make.
