thank you :)
how do you find the poems you post?

[exceptindreams]

You're welcome.

I find poems on websites (Poetry Foundation, Poetry 180, et cetera), through Livejournal communities/users (anotherhand, eventhealphabet, theysaid, greatpoets, scrapofpaper, etc.), through online poetry databases (JAMA, and so forth), in daily emails (Writer's Almanac, Your Daily Poem) in magazines (both print and online), in books (I have a few anthologies), and from suggestions emailed to me (exceptindreamsATgmailDOTcom).

[exceptindreams]

Thank you!

(Also, from random blogs and Tumblrs that I follow.)

Then recite the list of what you've learned to do without. It is stronger than prayer.

[browngirl]

Based on your comment I just read the Stephen Dunn tag here, and now I need to find a book of his. My morning is immeasurably improved from having introduced his thoughts to my brain, so, thank you.

Whoa, I'm so late to comment, but - check out the theysaid livejournal community. I just posted "Loves" by Stephen Dunn, and while I've always rather liked him, reading "Loves" shook me to the core. Just wanted to spread the Stephen Dunn love. =)

Oh, that's exquisite.

If the Devil sits down, offer companionship,
tell her you've always admired
her magnificent, false moves.

Ugh. So good!
