"I try to be inconspicuous. I really have a distaste for poets who announce themselves at 50 yards. You know, here he comes, you know, with the beret and the cane and the cape and the whatever - whatever mishegas is part of the outfit there. But you can spot them from a mile away. It's just like a billboard - I'm a poet, I'm flashing. No, I try to fit in. I try to make the poems eccentric. I don't want to look eccentric."
