Clearly, Once The Student Is No Longer

I Don't Think It's By Accident That I Was First Attracted To Translating Two French Women Poets.

With, Or Despite Our Scars, We Stay Alive.

Translation Makes Me Look At How A Poem Is Put Together In A Different Way, Without The Personal Investment Of The Poem I'm Writing Myself, But Equally Closely Technically.

As A Teacher You Are More Or Less Obliged To Pay The Same Amount Of Attention To Everything. That Can Wear You Down.

Translation Is An Interestingly Different Way To Be Involved Both With Poetry And With The Language That I've Found Myself Living In Much Of The Time. I Think The Two Feed Each Other.
