I crave language
February 5th, 2009
Today I’m off to an early morning doctor’s appointment and a day of paper writing. The paper writing should be interesting, but it makes me think of all the time I could be spending reading for fun. So I’ve decided that post papers/exam I will reward myself with some new reading material. I’m in the mood for poetry, or something brilliant that plays with language (a la Tom Robbins). Any suggestions for something good?

Robert Hass is hands down my favorite poet of all time. My favorite poem is “Meditation at Lagunitas” from his book Praise. It’s sad and hopeful all at once. Read it out loud.
