Required Poetry

A tag for pages about poetry that the proprietors really dig and view as generally essential to an understanding of their, uh, ''geist'' or something. A list of same.

<Brennen> GarrisonKeillor came out with a volume of "Good Poems" a while back - stuff he read on TheWritersAlmanac. Which is a very NationalPublicRadio kind of thing, but I mean that pretty much in a good way. Not that every single one of his picks was brilliant, but most were genuinely good and some I'm grateful to have read.
