...I have just bought a lovely book of poems by David Lehman, called The Daily Mirror. He wrote a poem a day for a year and published a bunch of them. They are refreshing, uninhibited. Of course, he knows everyone there is to know and he is very quick witted. He mentioned a good site you will surely be interested in. You may already know it: Poetry Daily. They post a new poem every day from someone published in some journal or other. I must say that is more interesting than the Oxford English Dictionary doing what they do: posting a new word every day. A page of arcane history and derivations and etymology. It gives me a headache thinking about it. As you may know, I haven't submitted anything yet to your poet tree [Web] page, but I surely will. I am thinking of short poems from my Thin Hymns booklet of several years ago. I have others like those as well....
