Who are some of your favorite poets?
Galway Kinnell!!!! And Sharon Olds, and Mary Oliver, and John M. Ford and John O’Donohue. I’ve just bought James Tate to read, because of a yummy poem called “Teaching the Ape to Write Poems”. A friend has just given me Marina Tsvetaeva, but I haven’t read her yet. I also want to read some more Billy Collins. Among the dead white males, I really like Tennyson and Hopkins. And of course Shakespeare.
