Kenneth Rexroth Quotes About Art

Quotes about: Art

• Now I know surely and forever,
  However much I have blotted our
  Waking love, its memory is still
  there. And I know the web, the net,
  The blind and crippled bird. For then, for
  One brief instant it was not blind, nor
  Trapped, not crippled. For one heart beat the
  Heart was free and moved itself. O love,
  I who am lost and damned with words,
  Whose words are a business and an art,
  I have no words. These words, this poem, this
  Is all confusion and ignorance.
  But I know that coached by your sweet heart,
  My heart beat one free beat and sent
  Through all my flesh the blood of truth.
