Summary: This book chief point is the need for a sense for language, which is the basic poetry sense, our most intimate sense of our human reality; and the need for one to imagine what a given word-weave says/ imagines. The word-weave itself as it speaks is already a reading or interpretation of the writer's experience, as lived or as imagined; what it means then is not an abstraction but an experience.
