It is just going steadily along. So I inhale and exhale. But I don't have any big or sustained project or any ending revelation that I can tell you about. The harmonious reverberations that you get out of life. Now American poems .
Poems go in waves and schools and fads.
The poems in America, if you identify them in the superficial way we have to do if we sift off from a newsstand what's being published, are pretty largely social engagement poems and they are intellectualized and they are characterized by quite a bit of satire and bite. They are very closely linked to the topics of international affairs, commercial, surges, politics, whatever the styles of fashion are. That is right. There is a scramble for that. It is not superficial in another sense.
