Larkin, Oswald, Patchen, Hughes, Adonis
Great selection. I was reminded of Coleridge:
"(...)
Water, water, everywhere,
And all the boards did shrink;
Nor any drop to drink.
(...)"
Marvelous selections insightfully gathered as usual.
I have enjoyed sets of poems on the elements--today water & yesterday earth--because they bring out what in us is similar in body (such as tears in a poem today) and idea.
