Okay so. I am now a member of the Saison Poetry Library. This means I have a frankly overwhelming set of Pomes I Can Read and am trying to keep track of who is on my List To Get Around To. So far I have read a pile of Mary Oliver and some Neruda. More things I want to get my act together to read (to be expanded as I think of them; not currently very awake!):
