William Stafford is among my favorites...not too controversial (at least not for his poetry as opposed to his pacifism), but from the period where poets needed to Do Something Else, for the most part, to become famous outside poetry circles, whether we speak of James Dickey or Maya Angelou or Katha Pollitt or Audre Lorde.Todd Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01815516018079824802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-79254631576141066142015-05-08T18:06:14.967-05:002015-05-08T18:06:14.967-05:00I read and collect several little magazines that p...I read and collect several little magazines that print poetry. I'm no expert but I do like Philip Larkin a lot. The literary quarterlies I subscribe to have some interesting new poetry: Hudson Review, Georgia Review, Gettysburg Review, Ploughshares, etc.Walker Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16089880902426182100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-15433730223153124562015-05-08T16:50:11.573-05:002015-05-08T16:50:11.573-05:00Same here, vaguely remember it from my parents - o...Same here, vaguely remember it from my parents - or was it my Aunt's? - house, surely paged through it, found some striking imagery. I read poetry to this day, though not often and usually from the same couple of shelves of volumes, all the usual suspects: Tennyson, Keats, Shelly, Hawthorne, Frost, Longfellow Hughes and so on.Rick Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978136287154214297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-65969875777446508172015-05-08T09:42:57.952-05:002015-05-08T09:42:57.952-05:00I've seen this and I think I probably read som...I've seen this and I think I probably read some of it back in the day.

I don't know when I dropped away from it, but I read very little now. That's kind of a shame.mybillcriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02350478005243505108noreply@blogger.com
