We’re also celebrating National Poetry Month with a pause to consider some of our favorite American poets. Included are the audio portions of videos originally published on YouTube. There are too many poets, of course, and we can’t include them all. So our choices may seem arbitrary and capricious. So be it. We’d love for you to share your favorite poets with us in the comments. We are simulcast on YouTube and Facebook.
