Distance not only gives nostalgia, but perspective, and maybe objectivity.

Among the American contemporaries I read with most enjoyment are several North Carolinians. I think the best poetry being written these days is being written by Southerners.

Some people swear by writing courses, but whether it really helps American poetry, I have doubts.

One Moment in Time because I think it describes me as a person and how I felt about being on the show.

If I make a move, like raise my eyebrows, some critic says I'm doing Nicholson. What am I supposed to do, cut off my eyebrows?

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.
