"Poetry comes at things through particulars, by means of images, and it doesn't deal so easily with generalities. Its mode is to cherish without limit. You could say it is idolatrous art. Some poems, the great poems, are true to their specific situations deep down, but they also have a universal quality that lets them live again and again, even in apparently unrelated circumstances." -Galway Kinnell

This is from Rosemarie Waldrop's study "Against Language?" I wanted to try a palindrome this time, and I used "rich" as the pivot word from Janet's Beowulf verse, linking it with "account."
