For poets…"It's simply the world."– Eileen Myles

From a review Eilen Myles wrote on Muriel Rukeyser's The Life of Poetry:

"Poetry's so tiny it's universal: A famous painter might be invited by The New York Times to give us a tour of the Met, to show us what he knows, but for poets there's no such building, or even bookstore. It's simply the world."
