In the End, Controlled Elegance
I first discovered the writings of Louise Glück while summering in Maine over a decade ago. I remember the moment because it was the first time that a contemporary poet literally had me spellbound—even before I’d gotten the book out of the bookstore.

What is Poetry?
Lawrence Ferlinghetti delivered these thoughts on the occasion of his receiving The Frost Medal in 2003. I cite it here as a footnote to the publication of "Freedom: An Anthology of Canadian Poets for Turkish Resistance" and its accompanying Manifesto.

Poems of Gentle Wisdom - Unity, Community, Man and Nature
Given the recent eruption of violence in the Middle East, these are difficult times to be reading poetry. On the other hand, perhaps they are just the right times, especially in the case of these three books, which come to us as gentle prayers in the midst of all the chaos. Whether arguing for the sacredness of nature and life or revisiting God, the “original poet” who cast our world, each book, in its own way is an appeal for balance, a plea for human decency and compassion in these unsettling, precarious times of ours.

Taking it to the Streets
For the past decade or so, I’ve been sharing my deep dark secret with students across the country: I hated poetry when I was a kid. I hated it from the time I was in high school right through my undergraduate days in English Literature at McGill University.

A short essay published in the summer 2006 issue of the Montreal Review of Books.
