“Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.”– Georges Braque Related Quotes “Each word bears its weight, so you have to read my poems quite slowly.”– Anne Stevenson “Rap is rhythm and poetry. Hip-hop is storytelling and poetry as well.”– Ajay Naidu “In the language of poetry, where every word is weighed, nothing is usual or normal. Not a single stone and not a single cloud above it. Not a single day and not a single night after it. And above all, not a single existence, not anyone’s existence in this world.”– Wislawa Szymborska
