May 22nd forum announcement

Dear Poetry Aficionados,

Poetry & Poets in Rags blog

Iain Sinclair of the UK writes about his encounter with Gary Snyder of CA at and approaching Kitkitdizze in the Yuba River watershed. This is where we begin this week in News at Eleven. The article begins with a 15-minute audio.

On our Back Page, the eleventh of the News at Eleven articles, we find a poem that brought high school bullies to tears. Leading up to this article are a couple items that show poets reacting to bullies who have graduated from running street corners to running countries.

As every week, we have some remarkable articles and poetry in our Great Regulars section, including another verse by Elana Bell, a poet mentioned last week. And be sure to scroll through the Poetic Obituaries, our third and final section.

Thanks for clicking in.

Yours,
Rus
