Why do you like to write poetry?

“I like to write poetry because it helps me to appreciate and express my worlds, interior and exterior, and to create another world that is completely my own and that I have control over. I write poetry because, when I look around, I see poetry waiting to be recorded. I have been writing poetry for a number of years, and since even earlier I have loved and been fascinated with language and enjoyed working with words and writing.”
