"It was my great-grandmother's name and now it is mine. She was a horse woman too, born like me in the Chinese year of the horse--which is supposed to be bad luck if you're born female--but I think this is a Chinese lie because the Chinese, like the Mexicans, don't like their women strong. . . ." S. Cisneros I think being a poet is a way of looking at life. It's not something you can choose to be or not to be. You simply are. I think that you are a poet whether or not you are able to write, at a given moment. It's the way you see and feel things. I don't want to fake it. I want to enjoy every day.
