Less mundane question: Does anyone want to go back to reading poems together?
The opposite of a mundane question:
Every angel is terrifying. And yet, alas,
I invoke you, almost deadly birds of the soul,
knowing about you.
--Rilke, "The Second Elegy"

I agree; back to poems! Shall we choose a new poet?
Since you've begun copying Rilke, perhaps he'd make a good poet to read together. I'd be game.
Sure. I will need a review copy...
(1) Peg, that's wonderful! Thank you: could you email me your mailing address so that I can forward it to the publisher?
(2) Rilke is definitely a reading possibility. How do others here feel about that?
I don't mind doing Rilke again, since we only covered the letters the last time. Or we could maybe do an American poet? I'm game for about anything, per usual.
