MUSIC OF POETRY
T.S. Eliot writes:
"The music of poetry must begin with the common speech, of the times, and poet's place. I remember the impression of W.B. Yeats reading poetry aloud. Listening to him reading his own works was to be made to recognize how much the Irish way of speech is needed to bring out the beauty of Irish poetry. To hear Yeats read William Blake is an experience of a different kind, more astonishing than satisfying.
The poet, when he talks or writes about poetry, has unique talents & qualifications, and peculiar limitations. There are three voices in poetry: the voice of the poet talking to himself, the poet addressing an audience, and the third voice is the poet when he attempts to create a dramatic character speaking in verse, inventing speech, one character in imagination addressing another.
It can be written from the heart for the ear and eye of one alone. Poetry conveys in prose rhythms, and remains all the same, one person talking to another and this is just as true if you sing it, for singing is another way of talking."
