Poetic Experience Is Distinct In Nature From Mystical Experience. Because Poetry Emanates From The Free Creativity Of The Spirit,it Is From The Very Start Oriented Toward Expression, And Terminates In A Word Proffered, It Wants To Speak; Whereas Mystical Because It Emanates From The Deepest Longing Of The Spirit Bent On Knowing, Tends Of Itself Toward Silence And Internal Fruition.
