How important is music to your poetry?
Very important. Much of what I write these days consists of song lyrics for which a melody guides the arrangement of words, and I later get around to hacking together a chord structure on the guitar. Music is my first love and I feel that song, and the songwriting craft, really lies close to the wellspring of creativity for me and it’s what I come back to over and over again for renewal. I love all kinds of music, and most of the time there’s nothing I’d rather be doing than listening to music, thinking about music, and playing music.
