Here this is nice

Did you know Slate takes poetry submissions? What's especially neat is that it's got links to the authors reading their poems. No wait, what's especially especially neat is that they seem to welcome rhyming, or at least off-rhyme. Anyway, I don't often write in rhyme, I'm just saying, it's nice to see that the form isn't dead and that, in still living, it isn't stale either.

Some of these poets can't read very well in my opinion--but at least we get the poems as the authors imagine them, as well as being able to just read them to ourselves.

Some current joys:
Otto Frisch Discovers Fission, 1938
Lightning Strike in Paradise
Space Needle
Ode
Lot's Wife

There's hundreds of 'em!

oh em gee Marking the Lambs is pretty unforgettable. I can't decide if I actually like it, but still.

Crater Lake probably the sharpest one I've found yet.
