William Stafford through his own words on his well known poem, 'Traveling Through the Dark':

For nothing in life exists without implications, potentials. To live is to travel landscapes with connotations, to meet people and things with millions of relatives, to find yourself reacting to anything new with all the weight of your past crystallizing into what is before you. In a sense, any account you make becomes a documentary in which you cannot write or tell fast enough to find your way out of the story you carry along. My story that Thursday morning carried in it a multitude of influences which hovered and cried for engagement.
