The pre-verbal...
A poem can survive stylistic blemishes but it cannot survive a stillbirth.
---Seamus Heaney

允许有表达上的欠缺,不允许有凭空的做作...
right on!!!!!
"做作" is the worst enemy for poets....and it is the easiest to be sensed or detected ....

赞同!诗歌应该是鲜活的。
当诗人的感情诞生于笔端,其以诗歌的形式存在下来,无论到什么时候,仍旧能给人以“活”的感觉。--- 允许有表达上的欠缺,不允许有凭空的做作。
很多的诗歌,漂亮的词汇如繁花乱眼,一首诗里,重复的表达,重复的意象,重复的抒情,遮住了真实的面目。
life,life,life ... ...

agree . . . with the "standard" . . . which sees through the "form" and into the "essence"

yeah, dead mind produces dead things....
Seamus's "standard" might be the ultimate rule for poetry, or any other art form....

i guess, "stillbirth" also hints a dead mind . . .

"Blemishes" here means something like "shortcoming," or "not-quite-good," etc..
i think :)
[now i understand....thanks...]
because when a poem is made, a new life comes into being....that is why a "stillbirth" of a poem can only bring a "dead thing"....
life!
life!
life!
we need life!!!
there are already too many "dead things" in the air :))

"stylistic blemishes"... 我理解这句话,换一个说法,是不是一首诗就像一个人一样,要有"个性"(Individuality)...有些“blemishes”是一种味道。。。
