While I was reading a poem by Bruce Isaacson (Lost My Job & Wrote This Poem) this line jumped up and hit me between the eyes: "I have strip mined love for poetry."
What a great idea. Strip mining causes a large mess, but is very efficient in exposing the substance being mined.
How many poems have been written about love since time immemorial? Countless numbers but I suspect only a handful were strip mined.
