Poetry 180
Has anyone read Billy Collins’ poetry 180: a turning back to poetry?
It’s a collection of accessible poetry that he compiled while he was poet laureate with everyone from C.S. Lewis to Jane Yolen to Richard Brautigan. This is a version of the 180 Library of Congress website (www. loc.gov/poetry/180.) The purpose was to assemble “a generous collection of short, clear, contemporary poems. Enjoy!
THE LATIN POETS – Pablo Neruda
Abeja blanca zumbas, ebria de miel, en mi alma
y tu tuerces en lentas espirales de humo.
White bee, you buzz in my soul, drunk with honey,
and your flight winds in slow spirals of smoke.
It’s Good to Be in a Different Setting to Write
I enjoy the change of climate and scenery in Costa Rica. Will it change my writing?
Mike Poblete’s Play -Rave Reviews
“‘Best Bet’. In Mike Poblete’s intriguing new play, Surfacing, the four-person cast is strong. Surfacing is a play that succeeds on all levels. It’s comic, punchy, uncensored dialog is enough to make anyone relax. The language is definitely for adults, yet leaves space for one’s inner child…Seeing a bunch of talented, sensitive characters who all have social anxiety and deep-seated feelings of inadequacy is a helpful reminder that, yes, probably some part of us is achieving things in spite of ourselves. And Poblete’s remarkable writing comes vividly to life…”

“Surfacing was hands down brilliant. Poblete holds a deep tome peppered with great wit. He understands of concept of dark comedy.”
