What do you find most difficult about writing poetry?
I find it difficult to get my critical, editor brain to stop talking over my free-falling thoughts. And it's essential I let my thoughts free fall before my editor brain kicks in but — being the control freak that I am — the editor wants in, right away. And this insta-editing is sorta like pulling chute the moment you jump out of a plane: you may be okay, but you also might suffer from hypoxia.
