Robbie Coburn

"I really find listening to and reading the work of lyricists and songwriters as essential to my work as reading poetry itself. It is all poetry."

"Poetry photographs parts of life and humanity that can’t be captured visually, at least in a literal sense. It dissects the hopelessness of being alive and makes it seem to develop meaning momentarily, even if it never actually does."
