Poetry News

I just read an interesting article you all might enjoy at www.pw.org about poetry and silence. Here is the link: http://www.pw.org/mag/teachersguide/indexloun.html

Also, keep your eyes out for Stephen Dunn's new book, "The Insistance of Beauty." He is a very interesting christian poet (who has been challenged and questioned by the conservative right). Not to mention he won a pulitzer, i believe in 1999.

Also, welcome Ted Kooser to the throne. He replaces Louis Gluck as the US poet laureate. He term begins in October.

Hope everyone's Monday is rocking like the Rolling Stones on Noah's Ark (the biggest cruise party since the ice age!)
