When summer evenings feel like this gif it’s beautiful and it’s worth it

“But so many women I know have their first book when they’re our age. I mean, I was 40, and I didn’t have my second book until I was 50. And then it was another five years before I had Four-Legged Girl. Maybe this is old school, but I think there is some worth in publishing when you really have something to say. And how do you have something to say? Well, you live a life. When I was 22, I wrote, but mostly reflections of certain kinds of emotional intensities, because that’s what I had. I hadn’t had time to really integrate those intensities or put them into a perspective that made a larger kind of sense, or connected outward, and who does? So that pressure to produce, to brand oneself, it has an impact on the landscape of poetry.”
