Images of the West: The Silence of Art
On poetry and fly fishing

SO MUCH HAS BEEN WRITTEN about fly fishing and about poetry — and so little of it written well — that writing about poetry and fly-fishing should count as an easy task, yet neither the art of fly-fishing nor the art of poetry require much discussion. Both are best practiced in silence.
We all know this, yet few of us practice the art of silence well, either.
