Happy poetry month!

~
Mention poetry, and people tend to divide into two camps: the ones who have a well-worn copy of The Bell Jar on the bookshelf and an opinion about Billy Collins's place in the literary canon, and the ones who still remember Mrs. So-and-so, the English teacher from hell, and her fixation on Emily Dickinson or her impossible test questions about the meaning of some poem or other.

"A Few Painless Ways to Celebrate National Poetry Month" is continued here.
