Don't know much about poetry, but I know what I like, and I LOVE Kim Addonizio

Today at Paperback Writer, Lynn Viehl is talking about poetry and Sage Cohen's book WRITING THE LIFE POETIC. I know next to nothing about poetry, not about iambic pentameter or modernist and post-modernist, though I do love me a good Haiku and for awhile was Twittering in Haiku form. That said, PBW's post reminded me of my discovery of Kim Addonizio. Her work is gritty and raw and real, and it's the same tone that I find in many of my favorite fiction authors...
