Butler University has a pretty well-funded reading series. And people from here are always jaunting up to see the Famous Poets, and now that I'm writing poetry again, I thought maybe I might take a field trip myself one of these days. Of course, I secretly want to see Mr. Billy Pilgrim in all his glory, but I've also been trying to read bits of the other folks that I'm sure I ought to know (but too often, only know by name, my contemporary poetry literacy having been stunted).
So anyway, in poem-of-the-day form, here's some nice Franz Wright I came across. Particulary enjoying the turns (verse! reverse!) in the first, "Old Story."
