About half our readers come from search engines and other places looking for poems to post on their blogs. Here’s a few linking to us today:
1. Can’t you put up some more?
Chris Frizzale on the The Stranger’s blog complains about our Heather McHugh selection. What he might not understand is the complicated world of poetry permissions.
2. Seamus Heaney Poem Sold as Construction Bond
Snaking the Drain blog reports that Heaney’s
“Glanmore Sonnet VII” fetched nearly $37,000, enough to build a cultural and arts center in the village of Ashford.
3. The Caffeinated Librarian Loves Creeley
Specifically Creeley’s homage to Robert Duncan
4. Motorcycle LEGO Blog Loves James Dickey
“Hey, it’s my blog, I can quote poetry if I want to…”
What kind of stuff are you talking about? I didn’t get a word of it! I’ve never understood people, who spend their time on commenting stuff like that.
