Campbell McGrath quoted from the Summer-Fall issue of FUGUE:
"You have to tell the truth in poetry. You have to be willing to say
what you think, and be wrong, and fall on your face, and have jaded
sophisticates laugh at your naivete, and have cool populists laugh at
your pompous elitism. Whatever, dude. You have to respect the deep
seriousness of the act of writing a poem and be willing to stand behind
what you have written...."
