Poetry is a merciless craft: it is notoriously undervalued (especially compared to other forms of art or writing), is made to seem hyper-sophisticated/esoteric and inaccessible, is often trapped in the ivory tower, and is bound to come with lots of rejection. It is easy to get bogged down by low slam scores or numerous rejections for publications or various opportunities. And it is difficult to find sustainable employment as a writer or teacher or poetry. So what keeps me going are two-fold: the way poems always seem to nourish me, and the way poetry communities ardently support each other.
Aerik Francis, interviewed for Shoutout Colorado (via bostonpoetryslam)
