Poetry and Music of the War Between the States
Kathie Fraser’s A+ site collects Civil War poems from the anonymous mother’s lament, “Enlisted Today,” in Confederate home front poetry to Herman Melville’s “Ball’s Bluff: A Reverie” among the Union battle poems. Songs too!
Poetry
Founded in 1912 and published monthly in the 90 years since, Poetry was at the center of the development of 20th century American poetry. Its perpetual survival was ensured by Ruth Lilly’s 2002 gift of a $100 million endowment.
Poetry Daily
Get your morning poetry fix with your first cup of coffee -- visit Poetry Daily for today's poem, brought to you by Rob Anderson, Diane Boller & Don Selby from such publishers as Norton, Knopf, Chelsea, Beloit Poetry Journal and of course, Poetry magazine.
Poetry Harsh
When you’re feeling mean & want to see all the other poets’ work trashed, or when you’re feeling down & could get a lift from any old energetically expressed opinion, indulge in a little Poetry Harsh, Erich Vogel’s journal of “negative criticism or living poets.” A little goes a long way... & he's no longer writing it, but the archives are still available for your perusal.
Poetry International
From San Diego State University Press, Poetry International offers “test drive” selections from its print issues, including poems by Charles Simic, Marge Piercy & Toi Derricotte, as well as Steve Kowit’s thought-provoking essay, “The Mystique of the Difficult Poem.”
Poetry: USA
Evolved from Herman Berlandt's Poetry: San Francisco as a tabloid poetry paper put out by the National Poetry Association with guest editors, Poetry USA now lives on as a Web zine. Poetry from all over the country and often beyond, from homeless poets & prison poets & kids & experimentalists & polemicists &c. . .
PoetryMagazine.com
From New1.com, PoetryMagazine.com bills itself as “The International Digest of World Poetry” and offers lots of new poetry plus selected works by a featured poet & a “classic poet” each month. In August 1998 for example, the features were Jennifer Ley & William Butler Yeats.
Poets’ Corner
A wide ranging & useful collection, including some complete books, a bibliography, a subject index for finding poems on your chosen topic, a “Daily Poetry Break” chosen from the archive & lots of poems from the last five centuries in English, all brought to you by Steve Spanoudis, Bob Blair, Nelson Miller & many volunteer contributors.
P O T E P O E T T E X T
Housed at Burning Press, Peter Ganick's P O T E P O E T T E X T explores text irreverence and avant mind -- here a collab between Sheila Murphy & Lewis Lacook, “Outside the Bother of Sunlight.”
Project X: 1497 to 1997
How about the poem behind the story, when the story is history, specifically Vasco de Gama’s story? Project X is an ongoing poetry-multimedia installation by Toronto-based writer, publisher and Webmaster Damian Lopes. The site is full of the tiny revelations poetry bleeds.
