Great Regulars: Jim Harrison: I think that's true,

you know, because sometimes you have little breakthroughs. I've known this group of ravens for 19 years, for instance, Chihuahuan ravens, Mexican ravens. And last year, several times, they began to take walks with me.

Jeffrey Brown: But then you put them into poetry?

Jim Harrison: Yes, then you do. You know, what is it that Blake said? How do we know but that every bird who cuts the airy way is an immense world of delight close to our senses five, that perception? What is possible in the natural world?

from Jeffrey Brown: PBS: Newshour: Writer, Poet Jim Harrison Is a Determined 'Outsider'
