In the first half of this duology on cool poetry stuff, we're going straight to the source: I'm talking about poets I love and why I love them. So if you're looking for some new poets to read, or you're new to the genre and want a little nudge this way or that, or you're old hat and you just wanna chill for 20 minutes with another poetry nerd: rest here, weary traveler. (Plus, a true tale of grace: me at age 15, a poet; a liberal application of system fonts; and my freshman honors English teacher.)
