Great Regulars: A: For a good number of the poems

in "Starting From Anywhere," I'd copy someone else's phrase or sentence at the top of a page and then see what it might prompt. I still have no idea where the voice came from in the book's last poem, except that somehow it was prompted by a sentence in a biography of Philip Larkin.
