About This Quote
My earliest poems appear almost skeletal to me now - it seems I've learned to add meat, muscle and a nice suit of clothes. When one's first poems are read, they may seem like they're not of great quality because the author hasn't put enough effort into them. But over time, as the author continues to write and refine his or her work, they begin to look a lot better. Not only does the author have a better understanding of what is wanted from a poem but also understanding of how to write it. When writing is done with passion and understanding of the process, the words have a much more realistic feel to them.
