I just had coffee with Reginald

That is, his fine new poems in the Sept/Oct American Poetry Review. The poems are accompanied by a short interview that focuses on the way autobiography collides with myth in his poems–among other subjects, including how Reginald used blogging in the creation of his recent prose work, among which is his book Orpheus in the Bronx. Sorry–can’t figure out italics. Too old for the phrase “shout-out”.

  2. Shepherd. He blogged here for many months, until his death a month and a half ago.
