"The poem is an effort to express a knowledge imperfectly felt, to articulate relationships not quite seen, to make or discover some pattern in the world. It is a conflict with disorder."
— Richard Wilbur
About
Notes on poetry and Sydney by Kate Middleton.
In my role as Sydney City Poet I wish to draw attention to Australian poems, profile Australian poets, review the work of Australian and international authors and discuss my own experience of poetry and life in Sydney.
Please follow my thought process this year in the Diary of a City Poet, or find time for short essays on Australian poems I love in the Poems Revisited. Read profiles of Australia Poets, quotes on poetry and art, and reviews of new books from Australia and from around the world.
My role as the Sydney City Poet is funded by Arts NSW and hosted by UTS.
