My take on “How Poems Arrive” by Anne Stevenson describes the way a poem is said, in depth and with imagery. This poem’s purpose is to decode how a poem is verbally said by a person and then decrypted. The last line “till it arrives and tells you it intention” possibly speaks about the hidden meaning or meanings that the poem has. The meaning can be deciphered by the reader or by another person, namely the author. There is also an ABA CDC etc rhyme scheme. The author perhaps wrote this poem to speak about poems in general, which is interesting as he listed some reasons why poems are created (in stanza 2, he mentions love or emotions).
