A swinging door (Suzuki)
If you think, "I breathe," the "I" is extra. There is no you to say "I." What we call "I" is just a swinging door which moves when we inhale or when we exhale.
Shun Ryu Suzuki

In the hands of any real poet, poetry exists at the very heart of the language. It is always 'difficult' because, by its very nature, it is saying things that verge on the unsayable.
