I enjoyed this interview with Jennifer so very much, and learned a lot, especially taken by this particular paragraph, "We need to embrace the puzzle and the mystery without having to explain everything. A poet should get comfortable with that space of not knowing. We all should because that is what God asks of us."
Also, it was good for my soul to read of another poet who is 70; I am right next door age wise, and this encourages me a great deal.
"A good poem doesn't close; it opens."
Wow, I really related to this interview a lot...
