"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for."

An Excellent Resource
It has been about two months since I received The Princetonn Encyclopedia of Poetry and Poetics, and I must say, it really bums me out that I hadn't run into this incredible resource sooner. I've learned so much in the course of these last couple months just by owning it, and highly recommend the ownership of it for any at all interested in poetry, and most especially for anyone who wishes to learn some of the more technical aspects of poetry and it's history.
