	On Lesbian Poetry
		These poets choose to deal with life at the level of metaethics—its social, psychic, and aesthetic underpinnings, which are articulable only in myth; their metaethics takes its structure from a complex poetic image of lesbian relationship.
		These four poets have voices that are bold, even arrogant, in their common, urgent desire to seize the language and forge with it an instrument for articulating women.
		In achieving their epic theme, the familiarization of the muse by the Lesbian poet is essential, for it is that crucial metaphoric relationship which makes the woman at home in the poet, able to create new worlds through the power an integrated self.

	apocalypse (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		I think we would look to the organs of spiritualism, Jungianism, neo-paganism, etc. for the current of changes which neo-romantic poets of the later period absorbed, and which their readers were quite familiar with.
		The poets did not — they were like fish out of water, aware that the old European culture had died but uncertain about a new life-space which could shelter them.
		The eclipse of New Romantic poets by talentless academic critics is thus part of a larger and tragic story in which literati became unable to write poetry and new poetry ceased to play a role in the life of the reading public.

	From Apocalypse to Black Mountain the Contexts Layton
		The characteristic image of the poet that emerged from Layton's criticism during the 1940s was a good deal less exalted than that associated with the great moderns such as Yeats and Rilke.
		The Movement poets were scornful of the traumas and vague yearnings of the Apocalyptics, and disenchanted with the strenuous intellectual probing of the modernists and the 1930s leftists; they seemed prepared to forego greatness, to settle for minor achievements.

	The New Atlantis - A Journal of Technology and Society
		To the poet, the scientist seems unimaginative and literal-minded—with his head buried in the ground of facts, incapable of comprehending the larger significance of what he does.
		To the scientist, the poet seems to have his head up in the clouds, indulging in fantastic visions of what might be and losing sight of the way things really are.
		And given the possibility that poets might have something to teach scientists, it is worth looking back at the history of their interaction to see if they have enough in common to be able to speak to each other.

		As an Arab-American poet and one familiar with the works of most contemporary Arab poets I would both agree and disagree with what was said.
		These poets are usually young, and, most importantly, are dispersed, most of them exiled either in Europe or in the Americas.
		They are neglected by the Arab poets who write in Arabic: their works are not included in Arab universities' curricula, they are not taught in contemporary Arab literature classes, and they are not seriously studied by the critics in Arab countries.

		One might argue that all poetry is a form of protest, kind of like purposefully lying in the gutter is a protest; the American sin, after all, is refusing your rightful spot in the parade of the commodity.
		Participant and fiercely intelligent poet Ann Lauterbach suggests that the chance "to speak to a public outside the small eddies and circles of poets" is a kind of metaphor for a popular sense that the time to be heard beyond one's small community is now.
		"Perhaps poets come to the fore at such times," she ponders, "because we already live at the margins, we represent a kind of powerless power, and maybe people become interested in this; the idea that persons can devote a life to something that will not bring the usual rewards.

		I believe Poets Against the War stands for a great deal more than just poets opposing another illegal and immoral war.
