December 5th forum announcement

Dear Poetry Buffs,

Poetry & Poets in Rags

Canada has a new Parliamentary Poet. That's our lead story this week. From there, we visit P.K. Page. So we launch from Canada way, find ourselves at a masked ball in New Orleans, and then wind up in prison. It's a great week in News at Eleven.

Speaking of great (my segue this week), we add three to Great Regulars: Fiona Sampson who we find so often in the Guardian, Charles McGrath who we find in the New York Times, plus Powells.com has a daily review going. We're in.

Also, The Critical Poet's Art Durkee has a poem featured in Great Regulars. It's in The Philadelphia Inquirer. Speaking of which, our friend Frank Wilson has a poem linked from Great Regulars as well.

The link above is to the blog, only because this week I put pictures in. After all that work, I figured I'd feature them. We may not have them each week, but when time seems permitting.

Thanks very much.

Yours,
Rus
