My heart rouses
thinking to bring you news
of something
that concerns you
and concerns many men.
Look at what passes for the new.
You will not find it there but in despised poems.
It is difficult to get the news from poems
yet men die miserably every day
for lack of what is found there.
-William Carlos Williams's "Asphodel, That Greeny Flower"
