probably the poem which inspired me to start writing poetry which has turned out surprisingly well in the end, other favorites (not my own work) include:
”A Regret” - David Trinidad (his collected works are worth picking up)
“Song in my heart” - Diane Seuss
“W B” - Bertolt Brecht
“Return to Lesbos” - Ed Smith
“Dec. 28, 1974” and “A White City” - James Schuyler plus an innumerable more that I can‘t recall since my copy of the collected works is missing
“Good Bones“ - Maggie Smith
“6:22 am” Gerard Malanga
