It
seems you can’t read a report on the reading habits of Americans without the
inclusion of moans and groans announcing the imminent death of poetry (with
fiction a close second). And then I read poems like the ones noted below and
think, “If this is a funeral, it’s one wild party.”
I’m
glad to announce that none of the links below are about Bruce / Caitlyn Jenner.
And
we Boomers may be aging, but 60-year-old dance teacher Shirley Clement knows
what’s in our feet.
