I think that writing is a way of continuing to hope. When things
sometimes feel as if they’re not going to get any better, writing
offers a way of trying to connect with something beyond that obvious
feeling … because you know, there is hope in connecting, and so
perhaps for me it is a way of remembering I am not alone. And the
writing may be sending tentacles out to see if there is a response
to that.~ Lucille Clifton, Black Woman Poet Extraordinaire
