(You’ll find that many poets have complicated feelings about mentors, former teachers, and poets whose work they once lionized. I can say that the kindest thing a teacher ever did for me was Peter Gizzi—a mensch—taking me to a bookstore to buy me the collected Wallace Stevens.) — PolitiTweet.org

(If you were to ask whose poetry “working poets” deeply respect but would also be a good entrance-point for any American or just English-speaker who hasn’t read a lot of poetry and wants to start, for much of my lifetime the first name people would have told you was Dean Young.) — PolitiTweet.org
