I didn't like any of his poetry or quotes so I used my imagination in the speech bubble. (Edit: Some of his poetry is quite good actually...I just wrote this for effect!)

Saw this quote and thought I'd try and do a caricature of the guy who said it...The American poet, Robert Frost ( 1874-1963). I always get lost in poetry...which is good. I never try and translate.I think the same goes for all Art....Maybe its best left unquestioned. I remember at Art school being told something like: 'objects lose their aesthetic value when given a name.' I think poets use their words for their aesthetic value.
