I love DHL's poetry. "Song of a Man who has Come Through" is one of my favorite poems ever. But here, he reminds us that your subject is immaterial. What the heck are medlars or sorb-apples? Who cares because this poem takes off

Loving these Cernuda poems (1924-1949)

"German sounds coarse, sylvan, and hoarse, as if it had originated in smoky rooms and outlandish districts."

Now that we've gotten through 180 pages of usury's history as explained through Maori practices, Calvin, Luther, Moses, et al--on to the poets. Roethke here in a famous/powerful excerpt

Variations on a theme--marginalia from the girls I've been babysitting thru the years I've been trying to finish this book, the first ever BAP. Finished it today, at least!

Latest American Poets full of good stuff. Larry Levis is reason enough, though.
