"Most writers tend to get bored when they feel confined, but a true poet uses confinement to create in a way that can only come from the inspiration within, uninfluenced by anyone or anything other then self, which I call the God within. Once this is accomplished, confinement becomes a blessing, as it distinguishes the true poet from writers of poems." - © 1999 Amias
