RIMA XXI - Gustavo Adolfo Becquer

-¿Qué es poesía?, dices, mientras clavas 
en mi pupila tu pupila azul, 
¡Qué es poesía! ¿Y tú me lo preguntas? 
Poesía... eres tú.


HI! well.. what can I say... I'm a really kept-to-self person... I love poetry and the kind of readings that seem to make your soul come out and scream...if you know what I mean....English's not my first language... some of my favorite quotes are...

"Works of art are of eternal solitude" by Rainer Maria Rilke :D

" Dont only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets, for it and knowledge can raise men to the divine" by Ludwig van Beethoven

Is it still a secret if nobody cares / if having the knowledge in no way impairs / your living - and feeling - the way that you breathe / knowing the things that you know about me
                                                                                                                          -Sam

"In spite of difference of soil and climate, of language and manners, of laws and customs, in spite of things silently gone out of mind and things violently destroyed, the Poet binds together by passion and knowledge the vast empire of human society, as it is spread over the whole earth, and over all time. The objects of the Poet's thoughts are every where; though the eyes and senses of man are, it is true, his favorite guides, yet he will follow wheresoever he can find an atmosphere of sensation in which to move his wings. Poetry is the first and last of all knowledge--it is as immortal as the heart of man."
--William Wordsworth, "Preface to Lyrical Ballads"
