So many poets, so many poems. Even more poems deleted instead of published. I wonder what beautiful works might we arrive at if we mix and match lines from poems that never were? What do deleted poems say? Do they sing of a love that should have been unhappy but turned out okay? Are there sunsets mistaken for sunrises, swimming pools written into seas? Does one person's name morph into another, and another, and another, and another, only to change back into the first? What hollow sighs and grunts and farts pollute the air of the nether poetic realm? What lofty rhetoric and wrongheaded dreams crowd the space of poems nevermore? And the most searching question of all: Would you have asked these questions if this poem were deleted? -- 英语文工作室 http://www.wretch.cc/blog/jsengstudio/ 个板 defenestrate --
