Hello,

I read something in the NY book review speaking of Ezra Pound's advice 
to poets.  I understand the difference between definition and description, 
but this "presentation vs description" I find difficult to visualize in 
sentence structure.  I would like to see two paragraph examples of how words 
are layed out to comply with this strategy.

New York Times Book Review of Kathleen Norris book Amazing Grace:
"Asked to preach for the first time, Norris heeds Ezra Pound's advice to 
poets to present rather than describe their experience. This strategy also 
works in 'Amazing Grace,' a book whose hospitality extends not just to 
Christians or religious seekers, but to anyone drawn by what its author 
celebrates as 'a living word.'"
