Don't Read Poetry Quotes

“I have been a drop in the air. I have been a shining star. I have been a word in a book.… I have been the string of a harp, Enchanted for a year In the foam of water. I have been a poker in the fire. I have been a tree in a covert. There is nothing in which I have not been.”
― Stephanie Burt, Don't Read Poetry: A Book About How to Read Poems
