why not take a look at Tom Beckett's blog. thoughtful, sincere, intelligent. he published a really useful mag in the 80s and 90s called The Difficulties. TD provided me a great intro to several poets, most notably Ron Silliman. the RS issue included interviews, poems and critical responses. this issue really illumined a writing that I had trouble coming to. Tom put a lot of energy into what poetry is today, and should be thanked for his effort. publishing poetry is pretty thankless, but thanks from me.

I posted comments on Tom Beckett's blog but something happened and I think I lost them
