		<description><![CDATA[I was told a joke in September about writers procrastinating over their work. That every time they sit down to write they will remember something else that is ‘more important’ and leave the desk for a few hours. At the outset of a project, especially a novel, you laugh this stuff off. But then it [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=poetbloggs.wordpress.com&amp;blog=94318&amp;post=94&amp;subd=poetbloggs&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Not just poems to be worked on, but pieces that you consider to be finished. What next? What do you do with them? Some of it is common sense, but [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=poetbloggs.wordpress.com&amp;blog=94318&amp;post=92&amp;subd=poetbloggs&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a closing note on the influence of art, poetry in this case, and its political and other influences, I have found an article from PIW, Can Poetry Be Political?, November 2002. Irish poet, Joe Woods, is cited in the article arguing that &#8216;all poetry is sexual, religious, political, or anything that moves people or [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=poetbloggs.wordpress.com&amp;blog=94318&amp;post=91&amp;subd=poetbloggs&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

I do need to know that what I write has some sort of purpose, not necessarily political, but a purpose. I am under no illusions as to the greater political influence that poetry has, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=poetbloggs.wordpress.com&amp;blog=94318&amp;post=89&amp;subd=poetbloggs&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
