038.366 - 2016 project and inspiration

every day in 2016, write a sentence or a paragraph or a poem that inspires or appreciates

listen to other poets.  listen to them when they talk about what they do, how they write, what starts a poem for them.  listen to them when they talk about how they pick their topics, how they know when they've found a poem nugget, a poem kernel.  listen to them when they talk about how they know they have that last line, or that image, or that metaphor.  listen.  something one of them says - probably several things that several of them say - will resonate in you, will make you more you.  suddenly you see, hear, feel, breathe differently.  that!  that's a how for you.  put it to work.
