Great Regulars: This line--"I did not know what

was happening in my heart"--is one of my favorite lines in the poem. I love how it dramatizes the poet's [Robert Penn Warren's] realization that the shared experience of telling and hearing stories can stimulate the mysterious, interior recesses of the self, which, I want to assure you, must not be ignored.

Tell Me a Story

from David Biespiel: The Oregonian: Poetry
