PoeWe haven't done these fun things in a while!

Edgar Allan Poe, 1893

“A verbal poet merely; empty of thought, empty of sympathy, empty of love for any real thing…he was not human and manly.”

John Burroughs, The Dial

Ezra Pound, 1978

“A village explainer, excellent if you were a village, but if you were not, not.”

Gertrude Stein (she was probably biased a bit)
